Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• What does the Digital ICE feature do on the Epson Perfection 4490 Photo?
  Digital ICE is a built-in hardware and software technology that uses infrared light to detect and automatically remove surface dust, lint, and physical scratches from your transparent film negatives and slides during the scan pass.
• Can this model scan medium format panoramic film strips?
  Yes. Thanks to the expanded 2.7 inches by 9.3 inches transparency light window in the lid, this scanner completely supports medium format film strips up to 2.2 inches by 8.6 inches using the included film holder template.
• How do I switch from scanning flatbed documents to scanning film negatives?
  Simply slide the white document mat off the underside of the scanner lid to expose the built-in transparency light path. Place your film into the matching holder, place the holder on the glass bed alignment tabs, and begin your scan.
