plustek: Thread: Epson 1250 Photo

Hi.
I can't scan Negative with my scanner. The driver doesn't turn off the 
main lamp and turn on the Positive/Negative lamp. Any help?

Sorry for the post.
In the plustek homepage (but not in Plustek-USB.txt) I read "Epson 
1250, mostly working, no TPA support".
During normal scan the picture looks with too yellow. Do I have to set 
up gamma value? can I make a sort of calibration?

thank.
Dome

We don't have that setup just yet, but xsane can do a reasonable 
job of balancing, or automaticly balanceing, the results of a 
scan.

Hello,

I would like to buy a scanner supported onto Linux/Sane, I think of Epson
1250Photo. But, in the web page, you note 'mostly working', what does it means ?
Is the driver operationnal ? Is it a problem image quality ?

Thanks,

Ciao

The definition of "mostly" varies and depends on the driver.  Here, 
using the plustek driver, we have all sorts of controls but its 
running basicly "uncalibrated" and has lots of "shading" in the 
output.  Switching to the epson released "iscan" driver, some 
controls are lost but the calibration seems to be spot on, and its 
the driver I'm using here with that scanner.  You can get that from 
the epson site but I don't recall the url at the moment.
