Product Description  
With the Kodak Professional HR 500 Plus Film Scanner and the Kodak  
Professional HR Universal Film Scanners, you can quickly generate high-  
resolution digital images from photographic negatives and positives.  
You can digitally capture images and store them in files up to 128 MB (format  
dependent) in size. The scanner is capable of variable magnifications from  
0.5 to 2.0.  
The new DIGITAL ICE technology corrects blemishes and defects on negatives  
and reduces your post-print retouching time.  
With the HR 500 Plus Film Scanner, you can use films ranging from 35 mm to 70  
mm widths, including 46 mm width film and the 120 series formats, with up to 90  
mm frame lengths.  
With the HR Universal Scanner, you can use all film formats, from 35 mm to 70  
mm widths, including 46 mm width film, the 120 series formats, and 4 x 5 sheet  
film, with up to 125 mm frame lengths.  
How the Scanner Works  
The image on the film is focused onto a Charged Coupled Device (CCD) that has  
three parallel linear rows of light-sensitive elements, one row for each color. Each  
of these lines is exposed to a corresponding line of image on the film. The time to  
expose each line properly is controlled electronically and is a function of the:  
sensitivity of the CCD  
amount and spectral distribution of light from the light source  
lens aperture  
magnification factor  
After the exposure, the data from the photosensitive sites on the CCD is  
transferred to readout registers for each line, where it is then shifted out and  
digitized one pixel at a time. While the data is shifted out, the next set of lines is  
exposed.  
The film is moved to expose a new line of the image for each set of lines read from  
the CCD. This motion is precisely controlled to ensure that the aspect ratio of the  
image is not changed and that the colors align correctly when the data is  
recombined to correct for the distance between the sensor rows.

Focusing  
With the negative or mounted slide installed in the scanner, use the software  
installed on your host computer to focus the scanner.  
IMPORTANT: The need for focusing is partially dependent on the depth of field.”  
When the magnification is lowerfor example, 0.5the depth of  
field is greater and the focus tolerance is high. As the magnification  
increases, the depth of field and the focus tolerance decrease.  
Therefore, it may be necessary to focus more frequently for higher  
magnifications.  
Scanning a Single Frame  
Using the software installed on your host computer, scan the negative or mounted  
slide.  
Shutting Down the Scanner  
Follow this procedure when you do not plan to use the scanner for extended  
periods of time, such as over the weekend.

4 Maintaining the Equipment  
This chapter contains procedures to be done by the person who is responsible for  
maintenance of the HR Film Scanners.  
Items required for maintenance are:  
Kodak camels-hair brush (provided)  
dry, untreated microfiber cleaning cloth  
lint-free cloth  
white cotton gloves  
Phillips-head screwdriver  
Cleaning Procedures  
To minimize the need for cleaning the scanner and to reduce the possibility of  
artifacts, make sure your scanner is in a clean, low-traffic area that does not  
collect much dust. Wood, tile, linoleum, or sealed concrete floors are preferable to  
carpet.  
Clean the surface of the scanner with a damp lint-free cloth as needed.  
IMPORTANT: Please read the following before performing any cleaning  
procedures.  
Avoid using pressurized air or canned air near the scanner.  
If it is necessary to use canned air to clean film, direct the air  
stream away from the scanner.  
Instructions for cleaning the balance and IR filters are included under  
IMPORTANT: The balance and IR filters are made of glass and are expensive to  
replace. They are not included in the product warranty or service  
contract. Use care when handling the balance and IR filters.  
When you remove the filters, inspect them. Cleaning may be all that is required.  
Otherwise, replace the filters as needed.  
Cleaning the Lens  
IMPORTANT: Wear white cotton gloves for this procedure to prevent oils and dirt  
from being absorbed into the microfiber cleaning cloth.  
1. Use the software installed on your host computer to set the magnification to  
2.00, which positions the lens as near to the front of the scanner as possible.  
2. Clean the front of the lens with the supplied camels-hair brush.  
3. Check that the lens is clean; if not, clean with a dry, untreated microfiber  
cleaning cloth.

Maintaining the Equipment  
Cleaning the Light Bar  
If artifacts appear on your scanned images, clean the light bar.  
IMPORTANT: Wear white cotton gloves for this procedure to prevent oils and dirt  
from being absorbed into the microfiber cleaning cloth.  
1. Fold a dry, untreated microfiber cleaning cloth so the edge of the cloth is  
about the thickness of the light bar.  
NOTE: You can use an e-wipe, manufactured by Photographic Solutions, Inc.,  
instead of a microfiber cleaning cloth.  
2. Gently move the edge of the microfiber cloth or e-wipe down the length of the  
light bar one time.  
3. Calibrate the scanner.  
4. If an artifact remains after cleaning the light bar, check the light bar with a  
magnifying glass for damage, such as a scratch or a chip. If there is damage  
to the light bar, contact your Kodak representative for service.  
Replacement Procedures  
Replacing the Lamp  
White cotton gloves are required for this procedure.  
One spare lamp is provided with the scanner.  
IMPORTANT: Use only the GE ELC Lamp with the HR Film Scanner (see

Appendix D: Using the Long Roll  
Accessory  
The Kodak Professional HR 500 Film Scanner Long Roll Accessory lets you scan  
rolls of 35 mm-, 46 mm-, 70 mm-, and 120/220-size edited film.  
IMPORTANT: The Long Roll Accessory must not be installed when you scan a  
4 x 5-in. image.  
Because of the variability of both film editors and scanners, you must:  
set the punch reader height  
calibrate the sensor offsets if you are using SAM to operate your  
scanner  
use aperture plates dedicated to your scanner  
For the highest quality scans:  
before scanning, to reduce the chance of artifacts, clean the film with Super  
equivalent cleaner that has ionized air and particle transfer rollers (PTR)  
install and use the appropriate static elimination kit (see Appendix B: Ordering  
follow daily maintenance procedures to clean the rollers and the punch  
readers on the Long Roll Accessory  
calibrate the scanner for each new roll of film  
CAUTION: Kodak recommends that you use one-inch film cores with the  
Long Roll Accessory. However, your lab may require that you use  
3/4-inch film cores. It is critical that the fast forward and rewind  
speeds are correct for the size core you use. The fast forward and  
rewind speeds should never be greater than 10 inches per second.  
If you use  
One-inch film cores  
3/4-inch film cores  
Maximum speed is 10  
inches per second.  
Maximum speed is 8  
inches per second.

Punch Sensors  
The punch (data hole) sensors are set up at the factory for negative-type film and  
require no adjustment during the installation procedure. If you will be scanning film  
that has a significantly higher or lower D-min from negative film, such as black-  
and-white film or color positive film, see Determining and Setting the Trigger  
Setting the Punch Reader Height for the Current Film

Because of differences in film editors, there is no standard punch reader height.  
You must set the height of the left and right punch readers, one at a time, to  
accommodate your editor.  
For each film size that you use:  
Install the appropriate aperture plate.  
Adjust the core locator height on the spindle.  
Thread the film.

Loading and Threading Film  
IMPORTANT: Careful handling of film is extremely important. Before loading film,  
clean the film with Super Film Cleaner or an equivalent cleaner that  
has ionized air and particle transfer rollers (PTR).  
Use canned air to clean the punch readers before threading film.  
Before loading film, make sure you have at least 2 feet (.6 meters)  
of leader at each end of the roll.  
CAUTION: In the steps below, be sure you determine and use the correct  
orientation of the flange. Incorrect setup will result in film tracking  
problems and loose takeups.  
1. Determine the orientation of the flange for the reel or core you selected for  
loading:  
A flange in the upright position is for thin reels  
A flipped flange is for film on cores  
No flanges are needed for thick reels

Using the Long Roll Accessory  
Adjusting the Punch Reader Height  
Adjust both the left and right reader heights such that the punch reader fully  
distinguishes between a data hole and film.  
No specific numbers represent data holes or film, but lower numbers indicate the  
presence of film and higher numbers indicate the presence of data holes. (See  
LED numbers.)  
For both the left and right readers:  
1. On the Film Controls window, click Position > several times to advance the  
film. As you advance the film, the reader should sense both holes and film.  
If you do not see a significantly higher number after you see data holes,  
2. When you see a significantly higher number, stop advancing the film. Turn the  
adjusting screw until the number is maximized.  
For example, as you click Position >, you may see a value of 580, but when  
you stop advancing the film and turn the adjusting screw, you may see a value  
of 620. This indicates a more effective reader height.  
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to advance the film to another position and confirm your  
adjustment.  
4. From SAM, turn the lamp on.  
When the above procedures have been completed, you can begin scanning. Use  
your Kodak Professional Digital Print Production Software (DP2) (help is included)  
to produce quality scans.  
IMPORTANT: Remember to recalibrate the scanner for each roll of film. Use a  
camels hair brush and canned air to remove dirt or dust from the  
light bar.

determine the averagelow number (indicating the presence of film) on the  
left LED.  
An example is 120.  
2. Subtract the average low number from the highest number you recorded in  
An example of the highest number is 800. Subtracting 120 from 800 results in  
680.  
3. Divide the result of step 2 by 4.  
Continuing the example, 680 divided by 4 equals 170.  
4. Add the result of step 3 to the average low number determined in  
step 1.  
The result is the left trigger point. Record this number.  
Continuing the example, 170 added to 120 equals 290; 290 would be the left  
trigger point.  
Determining the Right Trigger Point  
1. On the Film Controls window, click Position > to advance the film and  
determine the averagelow number on the right LED.  
2. Subtract the average low number from the highest number you recorded in  
3. Divide the result of step 2 by 4.  
4. Add the result of step 3 to the average low number determined in  
step 1.  
The result is the right trigger point. Record this number.  
Below are examples of determining trigger points. Round to the nearest whole  
number.

Appendix D-6: Film Splicing and Editing Guidelines  
Follow these guidelines to ensure the scanner correctly reads the data holes.  
IMPORTANT: When splicing rolls of film, always splice first, then edit.  
NOTE: The drawings are not to scale.  
Because the splice material  
is sticky, it is possible for  
residue to remain on the  
splice material after editing.  
splice material  
Use care with  
sticky splice  
material  
Ensure that light can shine  
through all holes.  
film  
Be careful to avoid  
accidentally punching a  
frame twice, which results in  
too many holes for the  
scanner to interpret.  
Avoid over-  
punching  
Too much splice material is  
cut, causing incomplete  
punches.  
Cut splice  
material flush  
with the film  
Not enough splice material  
is cut. This will interfere with  
correct film tracking.  
The punches are on the  
edge of the film. The  
punches must be  
completely within the  
frames.  
Make sure  
editing results  
in holes  
entirely within  
the frames
