Digital BW, The Print

Lloyd,
What version/release of Silverfast are you using - I have 6.0.1 r28
-if you have this one too then its likely the image not coming into 
PS is a bug ? 
The peculiar thing I've just discovered by trial and error is that 
the problem doesn't occur with the 35mm strip film holder, only with 
the other 3 (35mm mounted slide, 120 size film & the glass holder).
Is there a link between the Silverfast software and the film 
holders ? 
I don't think RAM can be an issue as I have 768MB.And the latest 
scanner firmware.
