GENERAL INFORMATION
ALL Trays: Load slides with the SHINY side facing the right side of the tray,
this will result in a backwards scanned image, but due to the hardware
design this is necessary to obtain the best scan quality. Images can be flipped
using 3rd party image editing software
Supported Slide Trays:
PIE Dark gray tray (bundled), the aftermarket Braun PAXIMAT Magazine 50
(Gray- for Glassless Slides up to 2mm Thick - MFR #15062)
CS Magazine (European)for CS/CS2-mounted slides (European design) 50
slide maximum version ONLY)
NO OTHER BRANDS OF TRAYS OR CAROUSELS SUPPORTED
Glass slides that are attached to glass frames may cause complications due to
the hard edges and thickness and cannot be batch scanned, no slides with
mounts that are thicker than 3mm can be scanned.
METAL SLIDES: Cardboard slides mounted into metal frames, these not
supported, they MUST be un-mounted from the metal frames
Loading slide(s) into the magazine(s)
Gray Magazine (Bundled tray) or aftermarket Paximat Magazine (gray)

reversed. Rotate the slide as illustrated below (180 deg) and Insert each
slide, one at a time, into the magazine slots. Essentially they will be inserted

program

the tray This method of insertion will result in backward image scans due to the mechanical design
of the unit, they will need to be flipped using an image editing program back to the proper
orientation

mounts are in good condition. Improperly inserted slides or slides with
distorted/damaged slide mounts may cause the scanner to jam and potentially
