Scanning Negatives with OpticFilm 7600i negative scanner

Hi all,
I'm looking for a way to scan directly into PSE 10 with my negative scanner. Maybe a plug-in? I know it's unlikely that there's something to convert the image to positive etc but I'd rather spend time doing that than use the bundled software with the scanner (SilverFast). However, currently Get From Scanner gives me "Film Scanner" which either previews and scans black negs or doesn't work at all without Silverfast installed. Seems the only way to set it up as a TWAIN scanner (yep, got TWAIN plug-in) is to use a seperate piece of software like silverfast which is then launched to get the scan. Got correct and up-to-date drivers properly installed. Any one got any ideas? Thanks!

I have a Wolverine unit with similar (?) capability.
My workflow is to scan to the camera card in the unit, upload from card to a folder on the desktop, then enhance in Elements.
So, the question is: After you have processed in Silverfast, can you point to a folder on the desktop for saving?
Another thing, there is a tech note from Adobe that TWAIN is not installed in PSEv.10. You may want to review this to be sure that it is installed in the right place on your system if you want to scan directly into PSEv.10

  • I"m not able to scan a single negative with my CanoScan 5600F scanner that I just bought.

    I'm trying to scan an old black and white negative. Unfortunately, it is not in a strip of six as seems to be indicated in the manual, although it doesn't say specifically it HAS to be a strip of six.
    I opened MP Navigator Ex. Following are the settings I used:
    Film
    Film type: Black and white negative film
    Resolution 4800 dpi. I also used 1200 dpi
    I put the negative on the far end of the film holder.
    I clicked on scan and got the following message at both resolutions:
    Cannot scan for these reasons:
    -The original may not be set correctly
    -The Protective Sheet may be put in place
    -The lamp may not be warming up
     (it needs a few minutes for adjusting lamp on low temperature)
    Scanner driver will be closed
    Code: 2,178,0
    I've scanned negatives with another scanner some years ago and never had this trouble. Any suggestions?
    Thank you.

    The same problem occurred on my iPad. Everything has current updates. Created new document the previous day and now unable to open. Hope there is a immediate solution. The reason I don't like software changes is the priority for reliable software nearly 99.99% of the time. Who knew? The reason I chose this software because hoping it also had the 99.99% reliability.

  • How do scan strip negatives via my Epson 4990 scanner using Image Capture since upgrade to OS X Mavericks

    Hello Everyone. OK I upgraded to OS X Mavericks without thinking that by doing this would stop me using my Epson 4990 scanner as no driver / software currently available - OK my fault. Anyway as Epson have not yet provided an update (yet?), all advice being recieved is use "Image Capture" for the time being. I have tried this along with using the "Help" files but unfortunately dont seem to be be any assistance. In simples terms I just wish to scan film negative strips (and transparencies) but it dont seem to be possible. Could any member advised how to get solve this problem as I am in the middle of a major scanning exercise with the worst case senario that I wil have to revert to my Windows based laptop to carry on and temporary reduntant my iMac which defeats the point of the exercise. Thank you in advance (hopefully) 

    Replay I received from Epson today:-
    "In response to your email, we unfortunately do not have any update available for your model at present. We have no confirmed date for this but as far as we are aware this is likely to be in the next two weeks"

  • Scanning 35 mm slides and negatives

    I would like to start a project of converting all of my many 35 mm slides and negatives to create DVDs, probably with FotoMagico2. I seek some advice as to the best scanner for this project. Two have been recommended to me, a Canon 8800F and an Epson V500. Both are around $200, which is an acceptable price, and both can more than one image at a time (a timesaver). Any advice as to which of these is better, or if there is an even better alternative? If so, I would appreciate it.

    I have used an Epson SU 1640 and i am using an Epson V700 these days. I am verry satisfied with these products. As for filmscanners, i have used the low priced Minolta Dimage Dual Scan III in the past. It's performence was good but the quality delivered by V700 made it obsolete.
    The V500 would be my choice based on the expereance i had with its big brother the V700 and the SU 1640 (witch is a mutch older model). I also recomend Silverfast software to get good quality scans out of dificult negatives or slides. The Silverfast SE version is often included with the scanner ( check this out for the V500). Silverfast offers trail versions on it's site and has special prises for upgrades and crossgrades. The SEplus version is my preference for a mariage between economy and performance. I have used it, with the SU1640, for some time before i upgraded to the V700 and Silverfast Ai. The only reason for this upgrade was that i continue to use medium format film beside my digital camera.
    There is one last thing. Scanning 'many slides and negatives' with scanners and software in this product range is verry time consuming.

  • PO_QTY came out with 0 and negative number

    Hi experts,
    I was loading data via 2LIS_02_SCL,2LIS_02_ITM. PO_QTY was populated by ABAP instance. But some PO_QTY number came out with zero and negative number while some of other PO_QTY number came out with the right number.
    I was working on this problem for 2 days but have no idea on it. Anybody can help me?
    Thanks a lot.

    dear Junbo,
    are you working with business content extractor only, i mean no enhancement to that field ? i think it can be 'program error' that po quantity is not correct, try to search oss note ? what's your r/3 PI level ? applied the oss note mentioned before working with lo-mm pur ? it's stated in mm pur extraction doc (if you have not this doc, let's know your email, will send you).
    if you are using business content extractor only without enhancement to this field, you may create oss message to get sap help. debug with rsa3 option debug marked is possible.
    hope this helps.

  • I scanned some black and white negatives into my computer (iMac) where they were stored aas positives on the hard disc. When I import them to iPhoto they turn back into negatives. How do I change them into positives for printing?

    I have scanned some black and white negatives into my computer(iMac) where they are stored on the hard disc as positives.When I import them into iPhoto to print they turn back into negatives.How do I turn them back into positives?

    That's because you scanned them as B/W photos and iPhoto 08 doesn't support the grayscale color profile.  You can either rescan them as color photos or export them as originals out of iPhoto to a folder on the desktop and applhy this Automator application, Convert to JPG and Embed sRGB Profile, on them and then remimport into iPhoto. You can download it from  Toad's Cellar .  Be sure to read the warning on the website about not applying it on your only copies.

  • Scanning size with HP 2570

    I've been having a problem scanning documents with my HP 2570 all-in-one printer-scanner as far as the size goes.
    The window that gives the size I want it to scan in as says it's 100 per cent, yet it scans in almost 3 times bigger. When printing what I scanned in, if I set the print size to 36 percent it will print the original size.
    Does anyone have any idea what may be causing the problem??
    Thanks,

    Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
    I don't know if this will fix the problem, but one of the first things you can do is to take out the old software and install a fresh copy and see if that takes care of it.  Sometimes this is all that is needed.
    Out with the Old:
    If you are using a USB cable, be sure to disconnect the cable before starting this procedure.
    Control Panel > set icon view > Programs and Features >
    Scroll down, find the Printer program > Right-Click on the program > Uninstall
    Repeat these steps for each occurrence of your printer's name until none remain in the list.
    Restart / Reboot the computer and log in
    In with the New:
    Install Full Feature Software – Printer
    There are more Troubleshooting tips in your printer's Support pages that may provide some additional help, too.

  • Scanning problem with HP Photosmart C6180

    Since the upgrade to 10.6 my HP C6180 multifunction printer is not working as a scanner from Adobe Acrobat Pro 9
    I select from the acrobat menu:
    File
    CreatePDF
    From Scanner
    in the "acrobat scan" window Scanner: shows "Please select a device" but there is nothing in the drop down list!
    This means that i can not scan a document to PDF from within Adobe Acrobat pro. I can scan through preview but preview does not provide the same features that Acrobat Pro does.
    Any Ideas? I have re-installed the adobe software but no joy...

    Had scanning problem after uploading Snow Leopard -
    This will fix your problem!
    Scanning with the software included in Mac OS X 10.6
    New with Snow Leopard, the Scanning interface to these HP Inkjet All-in-One devices is now built into Snow Leopard and supported with the Apple Image Capture application. There are three ways to perform scanning from your HP All-in-One:
    Preview program
    Image Capture program
    System Preferences > Print & Fax
    Important: After you open the scan interface, it is important to select the correct mode ( Flatbed or Document Feeder ) for the source of the scan image. Your HP All-in-One may have an Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) or a flatbed lid. By default, Document Feeder will be the automatically selected Mode for any devices that have an ADF. You must select Flatbed if you want to scan directly from the glass flatbed and not the Document Feeder.
    For more information about Scanning and Image Capture, open the Help menu from Mac OS X 10.6 and type in your question.
    Method one: Scan from the Preview application
    Click the Apple Preview icon in the dock to open the Preview application.
    From the Preview File pull-down menu, choose Import from Scanner .
    Choose the HP Photosmart, Officejet, or Deskjet All-in-One.
    The scan interface opens. Click Show Details to view settings and options.
    Method two: Scan from the Image Capture application
    In the Applications folder, select and open Image Capture .
    In the list of devices on the left, click your HP All-in-One.
    Networked devices appear in the Shared list.
    The scan interface opens. Click Show Details to view settings and options.
    Method three: Scan from Print & Fax > Printer browser
    From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences .
    Click Print & Fax .
    In the list of printers on the left side of the dialog, select the HP All-in-One to view the options in the Print & Fax window.
    Click the Scan tab, and then click Open Scanner .
    The Printer Browser window appears.
    Click the Scan icon at top right of the toolbar to launch scanning.
    The scan interface opens. Click Show Details to view settings and options.
    Important Gotcha: If the Scan or Print icons do not appear in the Printer Browser window toolbar, you need to delete the current HP printer queue and add a new one, as follows:
    Close the Printer Browser window to return to the Print & Fax preference pane. Or, go directly to the System Preferences > Print & Fax pane.
    Select your HP printer in the list on the left.
    Click the - sign at the bottom of the list to delete the product from the list.
    Click the + sign at the bottom of the list to add the product back to the list.
    Select your HP printer, and then click Add to create a new print queue.
    The next time you open the Printer Browser window, the Print and Scan icons should appear in the toolbar, providing access to Image Capture.

  • Poor image quality when scanning coins with officejet pro 8600 plus

    I recently upgraded my printer from an HP 2210 to and HP officejet pro 8600 plus. image quality on coin scans is terrible.
    I have tried scanning both with the HP software and with windows 7 fax and scan software
    I have saved images as BMP, JPG, PNG, and TIFF
    I have used resolutions from 300 dpi to 1200 DPI
    All give me similar unacceptable results.
    Images are better when scanned flat on the scanner than when in slabbed holders, and from this I am guessing that the plastic is somehow interfering wiht the scan. Either that, or there is a very shallow depth of field so that even moving the coin a few mm away from the glass moves it out of focus. But even a raw coin placed directly on the glass has significantly worse image quality than the old 2100. 
    The first image is  a coin scanned with the old 2100. The second has been scanned in a similar slab by the  8600

    Hi terry_renee,
    Welcome to the HP Forums! I am happy to help you with this scanning issue! I did a test with an HP Officejet 8600, at 1200 dpi, and no plastic covering. Just the quarter on the glass, and we cropped it to the quarter. This is the result.
    I have a few questions for you:
    What Operating System are you using for scanning? Windows or Mac? What version?
    What scanning software are you using?
    Are you scanning from the computer, or the printer's control panel? 
    Hope to hear back from you, and have a great day!

    I have scanned photos using an Epson V500 scanner set to scan using jpeg format at the highest quality (least compression) setting.  When I try to import the scanned jpegs into iPhoto, I get an error message from iPhoto saying "The file is an unrecognized format."  But if I reduce the quality setting on the Epson scanner to just slightly below highest quality, the images import into iPhoto just fine.  Why won't iPhoto accept jpegs scanned at the highest quality setting?  Wondering?

    What scanner format settings dis you use?  Are these color photos? If they are B/W did you scan as grayscale images?  That could be the problem.  
    Are you able to open them with Preview?  If so do a Save As, select full quality and save as a jpeg with a new file name.  See if that file will import and work as intended.

  • Scanning question with the Canon LiDE 110

    Hello, I am trying to scan pictures with the Canon LIDE 110 using Photoshop Elements on a PC. The Get Photos/  from Scanner in Photoshop works great when i have the image set to save as a jpg' but when i set preferences to scan in and save the image as a TIFF, I get a message that says "Software for this Device could not be launched.

    Hello wtneary.
    Unfortunately, we are not familiar with some of the message you described.

  • Scanning Problems with an HP OfficeJet Pro 8500

    I have an iMac running the latest version of Snow Leopard. I have had the HARDEST time, since purchasing my iMac in Dec 2010, scanning documents with my HP OfficeJet Pro 8500 printer. What happens is usually one of two things: 1) Only half of the page fills the scan window, or; 2) The entire document fills the scan window BUT the SCAN button is greyed out so that it cannot be selected!
    Yes, I have done the whole delete the current printer drivers, get the drivers through Software Update, reset the printing, etc. None of that has worked (well, on occasion it works for a while). I am not using the drivers that came with the HP 8500; I'm told that you should use the drivers from Apple Software Update.
    I have discussed this with Apple Support. They say I need to purchase  Apple Protection Care for them to address this. This is weird, considering that this appears to be a software problem with software supplied by Apple!
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Hi,A phone cable connection to a landline is required for faxing. Generally, a wireless connection only refer to the connection with a computer for printing and scanning, it do not refer to a fax setup. Regardless, the specific device does not support any wireless connectivity but only a wired network or a USB. Regards,Shlomi

  • Scan listenser with EBS R12.1.2

    Hi All
    I am planning to upgrade my DB to 11R2 with EBS R12.1.2 with RAC on linux platform .
    I have doubt can i use Scan listener with R12.1.2 EBS.
    I am referring doc Using Oracle 11g Release 2 Real Application Clusters with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 [ID 823587.1]
    Kindly advice me, if i can not use then is there any other method.
    Thanks
    Krishna

    Thanks for reply. The doc which i have mention in last post says that EBS R12.1.3 is supporting scan listener. but doc does not say about R12.1.2. do you have any idea that can i use this with EBS R12.1.2It is supported with 12.1.2 if you have the patches under "For Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1" section applied.
    Thanks,

  • Can I scan documents with Image Capture?

    I can no longer scan documents with my HP printer now that I have Maverick.  I can scan pics with Image Capture.  Is there any way to scan documents with image capture or with some other software? 

    Don't feel bad you are not alone.  I have a HP photosmart C4780.  Since upgrading to Mavericks it has been difficult to use the scan feature except via image scan.  I spent well over a month on the HP forums trying to discern whether or not new drivers were being developed and essentially got the run around.  Very crappy service from HP.  I'll not purchase one of their products again.  It appears that my all in one (which I brought through the Apple Store) is obsolete.  Anyone got any advice.  I'm contemplating seeing how many pieces it will shatter into upon being launched from my window.
