Hi, I'm in the process of scanning a whole bunch of old slides, but I'm discovering a small problem with brightness: - I normally have my monitor brightness set to about 70% brightness. - A lot of my old slides are very dark requiring me to adjust the histogram/brightness significantly so they...

Is there truly any noticeable difference between the 2 different color bits when printing on a photo printer? both bits seem to represent millions of colors. The only difference is in the file sizes. If one was scanning slides/photos what would be the best choice....48 bit at a lower resolution or...

Detecting Intruders on Your System Is Fun and Easy Well, perhaps the title of this chapter is a slightly misleading. Supposedly, becoming an intruder is fun and easy, too. If you want to detect intruders, you should know what type of system resources can be depended on for providing evidence....

If you are still messing with hp s20 film scanner, you should read this tip. I don't know if it's original, but I haven't read it anywhere. I have been stuck with s20 for three years now. And I still think it's decent scanner for occasional non-perfectionist film scanning. Only problem which...

This scanner worked fine for about 8 months. Now, about every 6th scan, the scanner makes extra noise and produces a blank white scan. Scanning again immediately produces a good scan. I am guessing that the extra noise might be some mechanical guide inside needing a little oil. Anyone else have...

This software seems to be impossible to find - I've mislaid the disk that came with my scanner and like lots of people, am reluctant to lay out the $30 odd for Epson to send me a replacement. Apparently it is not downloadable. If anyone has a copy of this software sitting around, would you...

Hi, is there a website out there that reviews scanners? For example: "www.druckerchannel.de" (german site) is for printer-reviews only. A very great ressource if you like to buy a printer. But what if you like to buy a scanner? i havn't found any good website yet :'( Boris

Has Canon improved on their software for the 9900F scanner? Initial reports of the scanner said that while the hardware is nice, the software needs improvement. I was wondering if Canon has issued any updates, and if those updates are worthwhile.

I have my HP C4385 Photosmart All in One (scanner, printer, copier) connected to my computer via its built-in wireless 802.11g connection. I can print to it via the wireless connection while running my antivirus software, but I can not scan. When I attempt to scan, I get a message telling me...

I recently purchased a 600F as a general purpose scanner, but since it came with a film adapter I've decided to scan all of our old photo (lots). I'm sure it's not the best for film scanning, but the output quality is good enough for our purposes. One thing I haven't figured out is how to scan...

With Windows 98 and a HP Scanner on a SCSI board, I could scan and have it go directly to the printer. It was a very nice home copy machine. With my current scanners, I can not find software to do this. Anyone have a clue? Brey

I downloaded and installed a driver for my Epson 1200U scanner but now I find there are only a few options when I scan documents. I use to get more choices. Does anyone know why? Regards Brian

I'm thinking of purchasing either HP 6110 Multi-function machine or Brother 5200c since they both have an automatic document feeder. The reason I want an ADF is that I sometimes scan like 10 pagegs at once, and I'd like to make those ten pages into a PDF format. I use Acrobat 5.0 Could anyone who...

Re below....never mind. Word to the wise...I was attempting to install the pre-Windows XP compliant version of 5.5.1....which does not create the necessary 'SprintScan Drivers' folder under the c:/root..... ================================== Hi folks, hopefully someone has the answer to this...

Hi folks, hopefully someone has the answer to this problem which is baffling the heck of of me. Running Windows XP Professional, initially without ASPI installed (but I've now installed the latest Adaptec build, and verified that the installation was successful, as part of the debugging process)....

Hi Can anyone please tell me if any of the popular (ie cheap) scanners will handle 2.5 X 3.5 inch negatives without the need for a separately purchased adapter? If not, what is the cheapest way of tackling these - I have a few hundred, so having these scanned professionally is not an option. --

Hi The problem I'm having is that the area actually scanned does not exactly correspond with the marquee I draw on the preview. I'm trying to scan photographs and include a narrow border around the image - but when I carefully set the marquee on the zoomed preview window and do a scan, the area...

I've read every message and review for the last 3 years on film scanners and still can't make up my mind. I have a large number of older kodachrome (some 20 years old) that I want to scan. I want the best quality that I can get from these. The Nikon 5000 seems to have the best quality overall, but...
