Setting up
Setting up
The Polaroid ID-104 Camera lets you quickly and easily take
instant photos for use with ID systems. Use the camera to
take ID photos for use on identification cards, credit cards,
and many other small formats.
There are three models of the ID-104 Camera. Each camera
lets you adjust the exposure, and gives you a choice of taking
4 pictures per sheet. These pictures can be grouped as four
different pictures, four duplicate pictures, or two sets of two
different pictures. Picture-taking operations vary depending
on the model you are using.
The ID-104 Deluxe Camera has a LCD graphical menu
display that guides you through picture-taking operations in
English, French, Italian and Spanish. This camera has
additional programmable features for added functionality.
The ID-104 Econo Camera has a LED panel that uses a series
of lights to guide you through picture-taking operations.
The ID-104 Viva Camera is released for international use
only. It uses a different film format from other ID-104
cameras. Otherwise, the operations are identical to the
Econo.

Setting up the camera
Setting up the camera is simple; follow these steps and your
ID-104 Camera will be ready to take photos in no time.
Note: The following instructions refer to the callouts in the
previous The camera (page 6) section.
Preparing the camera
To set up the camera and turn it on:
1Pull out the silver release pin (h) on the right side of the
camera base with the camera back facing you. While
holding the knob out, firmly grasp the camera head from
the bottom with your left hand and swing it up into the
upright position. Release the knob. The camera head clicks
into place when the camera is fully upright.
2Tighten the large black locking knob (i) under the camera,
preventing it from moving on its base.
3Plug the small end of the AC power supply into the socket
on the back of the camera (j). Plug the power cord into a
grounded AC outlet. If you prefer to use the rechargeable
battery, refer to the instructions in this guide.
4Adjust the aperture switch (r) on the front of the camera for
the recommended f-stop by moving the switch to the
desired setting.
Note: Use these settings at 75°F (24°C) and above. At colder
temperatures, you may have to adjust the settings. Refer to
the film instructions for details.
5Turn on the ID-104 Camera:
Deluxe model. Turn the camera on by turning the key (g)
clockwise 90° to ON. The display reads “Load Film” if the
camera does not contain film, “Pull Film” if the film has
been loaded but the dark slide has not been pulled, and
“Wait” for a warm-up period of about 15 seconds if the
camera contains film. After warm-up, it reads “Ready”.
