Also, as David mentioned, sometimes the SCSI bus won't recognize the scanner

turn on sscanner, boot pc, wait until PC is up and running, shut off scanner

What's the consensus amongst other Scan Multi owners as to the scanner as a
whole.
What are they reporting?
Actually, I haven't heard all that much yet. But what I have heard has been
all very good. (Stable, user-friendly software, good film holders, small
quiet machine, great shadow

So what I'd do is allocate as much RAM as I possibly can to Photoshop
(in your case about 1.2GB of RAM to Photoshop leaving 300MB for the

running) and with no images open between scans.
Thanks for your help,

It would make sense that some people would experience worse banding than
others if the information I received from several sources is correct.
Most scanners use a tri-line CCD sensor chip. In all scanners I know of
other than Nikon, this tri-line has filters over each line corresponding
to R
Thanks David - for the input.
Have been looking at the price here on both the SS120 and the LS8000 and now find
there is A$1000 difference. So the choice is becoming clearer. Its do I need ICE

Don't forget about the new Minolta Scan Multi Pro. It also has ICE.
David,

It's ICE/GEM that is slow, not the Nikon.
If you turn off GEM especially the scan times are remarkably good in normal
mode...
I doubt if you compare equals (no ICE in either scan) that you would find
anything

If you have not experienced banding how do you run the LS8000 ? Is it in the
fine mode? Which makes scanning slow.
