Microtek LightLidTM 35
Installing and Getting Started
The LightLid 35 is a bonus accessory
included with your Microtek scanner. It gives
you the versatility to scan 35mm slides on
your flatbed scanner.
Microtek recommends the use of this
accessory to scan slides for on-screen display
purposes or where high resolution is not
critical. For high-quality print reproduction,
we recommend purchasing a dedicated slide
scanner or a Microtek scanner with built-in
film-scanning features.
Please note: Scanning of color negatives may vary, depending on the quality of your
film original.

A. Installing the LightLid 35
1. Unpack the LightLid 35.
2. Remove the scanner lid.
3. Connect the LightLid 35 to your scanner. To do this:
Connect the 15-pin connector (A in diagram) of your
LightLid 35 to the accessory port (B) at the back panel
of your scanner.
B. Operating the LightLid 35
1. Mount the 35mm slide or filmstrip on the LightLid 35.
A. Mounting a slide:
Turn the LightLid 35 over. Insert the
35mm slide front side up into the
recessed area at the center of the
LightLid. Secure the slide by gripping it
with the grip prong provided at the
connector side of the recessed area.
For added stability, you may wish to
secure the slide with a piece of
adhesive tape.
B. Mounting filmstrips:
Turn the LightLid 35 over. Insert the
35mm filmstrip front side up along the
recessed area, with one perforated side
of the filmstrip tucked under the mylar
sheets. For added stability, secure the
other perforated side of the filmstrip
with a piece of adhesive tape.
2. Place the LightLid 35 (with the secured filmstrip or slide to be scanned) on the glass
surface of the scanner. The LightLid 35 can be placed either horizontally or
vertically on the scanner surface, as shown below.
