The DMAX of the LS-40 will be 3.6 instead of the 3.0 DMAX in the LS-30.
Is the main improvement of the LS-40 over the LS-30 the USB connection, 12
bits vs. 10 bits, and slightly higher DPI?

Unfortunately, it is up for debate what any Dmax is for the Nikon
scanners. That is, their Dmax specification seems to be simply what
the bit depth is capable of storing, and may have

What advantages does
firewire have over SCSI??
Firewire is theoretically faster than SCSI, but no scanner
is so fast that SCSI is the bottleneck.
Any idea why Nikon switched to fw, and
didn't impliment both?

I just traced the scsi commands that NikonScan 3.0 uses
with the LS-30, and it probably will get the same jaggies

which is what causes the jaggies.
I already told my Nikon contact about how to fix the

I looked at the .inf file for the LS-4000 and it
uses SCSI over Firewire, which means it should
be just as easy to add support for in VueScan.

I just thought I'd let the people on this mailing list know that
Nikon loaned me an LS-40 today. I installed it and traced
the USB commands, and it looks like it will be quite easy to

Ed,
How about support for the ls-8000?

Yes, although with NikonScan it's 12 bits vs. 8 bits. In addition, the
LS-40 adds Digital ROC and

It depends when Nikon can loan me one. They're quite good
about loaning me scanners, so I suspect I'll get this working
right before the LS-8000 and LS-4000 become widely available.

I certainly intend to implement SCSI over Firewire (which is what
scanners use - the SBP2 protocol). It may take me a bit longer
to get it working on Mac OS than Windows though. It turns
out that this is really, really easy for me to add on Windows.

At this rate you should have support for the LS-16000 in a week or so!
Oh, yeah: :-)

To me this is good news - they are working with their software's competitor,
but hopefully it helps both of you out.
