I just released VueScan 6.3.19 for Windows, Mac OS and Linux.
It can be downloaded from:
http://www.hamrick.com/vsm.html
What's new in version 6.3.19
* Significantly improved image cleaning on scanners
with an infrared channel (Scan Elite, LS-30/LS-2000)
* Separated filter option
The scantime fro the RFS3600 is in batchmode preview 12bit (slowest) 12
sec´s per image SCSI and USB, finalscan around 50MB is 2min 10sec on scsi
and approx 4 min on usb.

HI,.all!!
Kudos to Ed Hamrick for his latest vuescan release!! I now can operate both
my Scan Multi II and my Umax Astra 2400S at the same time (well, not
simultaneously, but they can both be on and usable at the same time.)!
For some reason, the TWAIN drivers for the two machines don't
Epson used to sell film scanners...maybe its time they got back
into the market.
Epson withdrew because they were disappointed by sales volume with the FS200. At that
point they decided that dual-purpose flatbeds were the way to go.

Wondering if the problem I am having is similar? Been using an epson 636
flatbed and recently hooked up a Minolta Dimage Scan dual.ll Both use Twain
drivers the software on the Minolta will not open unless I pull the USB cable
and reinsert it. Hmm! Would vuescan solve this,or is the solution
Also, try
Image/Adjust/Channel Mixer...
to build a grayscale image from whatever combination of color channels
your eye prefers. This lets you use Photoshop to simulate a filter on
the camera in the field. E.g., for dark sky, use more red channel, less
blue. Ansel Adams would have loved it.
For some reason, the TWAIN drivers for the two machines don't coexist well,
and I could only use one by turning off the other one and rebooting.
I found this to be the case with my Umax SCSI flatbed and Minolta SCSI Scan
Multi until someone on one of the lists suggested that it might have

Sorry about this newbie question, but:
For use with Mac G4, which is best choice?

--both offer 12-bit output
--both advertise 3.2 density range

If you're looking for a solution which is "write once and keep forever",
CDRs probably aren't the solution.
