What are Scan Adapters used for?

Scan adapters lift instant photos away from flatbed scanning glass, while holding the photos in the correct position for a precise scan free of any Newton Rings—artifacts that result from two reflective objects being pressed against each other.

Each scan adapter is made from PLA+ filament, a biodegradable plastic derived from renewable resources, and printed using Lulzbot Taz 5 and Creality Ender 3 3D printers.

+ “I just bought a 3D Print Your Own: Scan Adapter .stl file and will be going to my local 3D printing shop to get it made. What do I need to know in advance?”

Scan adapters are very simple to print—the .stl files are universal and will work on any printer. I print my scan adapters at 20% infill using Lulzbot Taz 5 and Creality Ender 3 3D printers. The filament I use is PLA+, which is very common and any printing service should have it.
