Epson V500 no Film ‘Document Type’

I have been delegated the task of scanning the family photos and I picked up an Epson Perfection V500 to perform these duties, since I could not find any real options with a feeder. I’ve used it off and on for the past few months without a problem and have found it to be quite useful, fast, flexible, and convenient; however, today in the midst of scanning some negatives I lost the option to select Film as a ‘Document Type.’ To recover from this problem I turned off my scanner, and unplugged everything in the back for a few seconds and then reversed the process.
