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
Film Cleaner (see Appendix B: Ordering Accessories and Supplies) or an
equivalent cleaner that has ionized air and particle transfer rollers (PTR)
• install and use the appropriate static elimination kit (see Appendix B: Ordering
Accessories and Supplies)
• 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.
IMPORTANT: Before beginning the following installation procedure, check that
the shipping box contains all items on the packing list. If it does not,
contact your Kodak representative.
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.
