Epson Fluid Mount Option

The Epson fluid mount option lets you take full advantage of your scanner’s capability for high-resolution imaging. When used with a commercial mounting fluid (not included), it holds your film flat to maintain a consistently sharp focus, helps eliminate Newton rings, reduces grain, and reduces the appearance of scratches on silver-based negatives.

To use the Epson fluid mount, you need to obtain the following commercially available supplies:

Scanner mounting fluid
Scanner mounting film (clear Mylar polyester film)

Caution:

Scanner mounting fluid is highly flammable; keep away from sources of heat, flame, or sparks. Mounting fluid contains harmful solvents. Avoid contact with the eyes and skin and always work in a well-ventilated area.

Carefully read and follow all safety instructions provided by the manufacturer, including recommended procedures for handling and use. The proper handling and use of third-party scanner mounting fluids and the understanding of all potential risks is solely the customer's responsibility. Epson makes no claims nor assumes responsibility for any damage, risks, or potential health and safety issues that may result from the use thereof.
