![]() ![]() But I went to the Epson site and downloaded a copy of the new driver for the scanner the new scanner software came with it and it now operates just fine on W10.įinally I didn't buy a new scanner, but I first completely cleaned my old CanoScan 8600. When I upgraded to W10 the software that came with the scanner did not work. I have a much older Epson scanner and have used it for scanning slides and B/W and color negatives of various sizes with good success. It seems that I would need the Vue Scan professional, as the standard version is marked as not supporting negative scanning.Īt the prices of the Epson 550 and 600 scanners I would just buy one and try it. It seems that I would need the Vue Scan professional, as the standard version is marked as not supporting negative scanning. Possibly it might even "save" my old Canoscan 8600. So I need to look at the VueScan program. I have not tried any other scanner programs than what was delivered with the CanoScan 8600, (CanoScan Toolbox and Silver Fast). At a pinch you can lay negs down on the glass and scan them, I did that with some 110 negs I found. The V550 came with holders for both 35mm (mounted slides and strips) and 120/220 (60mm) film. It doesn't do as good a job as my dedicated 35mm film scanner for 35mm negs (but the MF negs don't fit in that). I don't actually see any extra detail in the 6400 dpi scan over the 3200dpi scan, so I'm not worried about that.įor the negs it did quite an impressive job. The one issue I came across with the V550 was there's a problem with the IR channel at the highest resolution 6400dpi? (so VueScan doesn't do IR clean at that resolution). I got a V550 to scan some medium format negatives (my wedding photos). In a nearby shop I could order scanners Epson V550 or Epson V600, so I'll not at the moment consider anything else than these two Epson (or possibly some CanoScan)įor your software incompatibilities, have you tried a different scanner application, like VueScan? I only ever use VueScan, and ignore any manufacturer's drivers. Any problems or issues with these Epson scanners? I suppose there is a reasonable program delivered with the Epson scanners, (like the "CanoScan Toolbox" + some "Silver ?" program), to utilize the scanner and to separate the scans if you scan several prints at the same time. As far as I understand there are holders for both 35mm film strips and 60mm film strips delivered with the Epson scanners, (like with CanoScan)? (- probably no more scanning of 35mm diapositive films) old B/W and color print pictures, (of which some old B/W prints might be as small as about 35mm themselves some very old 60mm (?) B/W film negatives ![]() ![]() old 35 mm B/W or color film strips (negatives) I recall that I might have read about some issues concerning scanning of film negatives bigger than 35mm film in the Epson scanners? Any experience with these Epson scanners, (possibly compared to Canoscan 8600?) ![]() In a nearby shop I could order scanners Epson V550 or Epson V600, so I'll not at the moment consider anything else than these two Epson (or possibly some CanoScan) (And the CanoScan is probably still less compatible with W10 which I'll probably need to start using next year) I'm considering replacing my recent scanner CanoScan 8600 with something new, partly because of its age and partly because it's not completely compatible with W7 pro, it's working, but there are some issues. ![]()
