I hate to say it this way, but that is just SO pathetic! From what I
understand, fixing it would require a firmware modification to both
calibrate three lines instead of one, and then to use three calibration
It will also hurt used sales of these...or create bargains for people who
don't mind living with the defect. What a shame.
It's probably the usual problem of someone (or several people) quite
influential in the organisation either not understanding the full
implications of the issue or not
I have placed an order for the LS8000 as I like the ICE features of my LS2000.

I wonder if there is anyone who has experience of the Sprintscan 120 from

Thanks Lawrence
Thats not good if big enlargements are required and I don't think that I

have come up with a fix or intend to come up with a fix.
Should be interesting. Ill post there reply.
