Digital BW, The Print

Hi Trotteur:

I have this machine, and it does good scans. However, I use Vuescan  
instead of the Dimage software. There were problems with the usb  
connectivity every time I used the scanner and that software (OSX). I  
though Vuescan did a better job anyways, and I already had it.  
Vuescan, unlike a certain German scanning software, allows one to use  
more than one scanner with it's software, and has unlimited free  
upgrades!

I mostly scan slides and they are generally on colour. Colour  
negatives are ok colour wise but display a lot of grain. Since I've  
got a digital camera, it's use has been declining.
