I closely examined the calibration port on the negative film area, there is nothing in
there to interfer. I also did a little vaucumning of the entry door on the scanwit
and a squirt of compressed air to remove dust etc that may have found refuge in the
scanner to no avail.

I've had a number of niggling PC hardware problems using the Minolta
software with my Scan Dual II, typically related to having the system hang
with the film holder in the gut of the scanner (using a PC with [gulp]
windows millennium), requiring a reboot. What's interesting about this is

I missed the first part of this thread but this sounds a lot like a light

My first Minolta Dual II produced scans with severe banding that was
probably due to faulty CCD - thick band of yellowish color located always at
the same position within the frame. That scanner was returned for
replacement. The second Dual II works flawlessly so far. Scans are very

I assume you are opening VuePrint or Photoshop first and then using the
Acquire menu item in the File list to start the TWAIN software and scan
the image. I am not familiar with the HP or Microtek software so I don't
know the answer to your question, but in my use of Corel PhotoPaint and the
I am annoyed that my Nikon LS-30 can't scan a whole 35mm frame.
With my old Leitz enlarger I could project the whole 24x36mm frame, plus about
1mm of clear film all round. I used to print the whole frame, including the
black border as evidence that the image was complete and uncropped. (Ah, the

I have to agree with Ed's comments.
Wouldn't it be nice if products came with a diagnostic chip and buffer,
that would record all basic information of conditions at a specific time

Thanks, Ed. Any ideas on how to *clean* that sucker? I'm not sure I even
know what it looks like (although there's a wide white stripe at the top of
the scanning unit).
Flatbed scanners often have a calibration zone that is glued onto the

Peter, is the amount lost significant? I mean it must be to you since you're
annoyed about it, but in my experience I can generally scan more of the
image on the frame than has ever appeared on a photographic print.

A small but perhaps important plus with the Canon is that the slide/neg is vertical

VuePrint and VueScan are different and separate programs - it sounds to me
like you have only VuePrint. Go back to http://www.hamrick.com/vsm.html and
download VueScan - if you have paid the $40 to register VuePrint then
VueScan is already registered as well, and if you haven't then you will be
