Hi All
�
I've borrowed both a Polaroid Sprintscan 4000 and a Nikon Coolscan III LS-30 for the weekend.
Both seem to require SCSI ports, and of course I've neither in either my PC or Mac G4. The PC has a port the lead (50/25 pin SCSI) will fit into, the 25 point end that is. Although when either scanner is plugged into this slot the PC can't or won't see it.
Anyone any tips on how I can get either scanner to work with either computer?
If you have a SCSI port in the machine, and you have the software, then it may be a SCSI chain problem. Does the Scanner have a terminator on the back of it? (a terminator acts as an end to the SCSI chain)
I have an old SCSI scanner in my G3 (via a SCSI card)......It was a while ago but I remember fitting the card, and everything worked fine. Vuescan saw the scanner and Bobs your Uncle!
