No I have not asked them. I use brand new film properly stored. I don't know for sure why I am seeing the shifts; I figured I would try another film processor to see if the shifts are on my end.

Thanks, Corran - Praus looks awesome.
Thanks, djdister.
Dodge currently processes my 4x5s but I've been seeing some color shifts coming out of my negs lately. I was wondering if there might be a good alternative in the area so I...
Hello,
I live in Baltimore, MD. Can somebody recommend a really good lab on the East Coast for processing my 4x5 sheet film? I'm looking for somebody who's clean and won't process with scratches,...
Thanks for the responses! I'll pick up the APC at Staples.
Kirk,
I live in the NE - we get some huge summer thunderstorms out here. What did you mean by "drying out faster"? Does your 9800...
Does anyone have any recommendations for a decent UPS to hook up with my new Epson 9800? I don't want the thing to get fried during a lightning storm or from some other electrical surge. Midwest...
I'm in the market for a new monitor; my current LCD is 6 years old. I'm buying an Epson 9800 wide-jet printer and color management is going to become very important once I start using this printer. I...
Thanks, Doug.
I just contacted Silverfast and they confirmed that their calibration plug-in is an add-on that costs $139. I'm willing to give it a try but do you know of any reason why the Monaco...
I've tried calibrating using the Silverfast AI software that I have (Version 6.4.4r6) and I've never found the calibration icon mentioned in the pdf manual. This is after I perform a pre-scan. My...
Monaco does calibrate all three but I'm not using a colorimeter for the monitor at the moment; I'm doing the squinting the eyeballs technique which I know is not as good.
Thanks, Neil. Attached are my Corel Draw CMS settings. All of the device profiles were created by my Monaco software using IT8 targets (transparency target for the scanner, reflective target for the...
I have a question concerning Color Managment Systems (CMS) and different workspaces or applications. I've used the Monaco EZ-Color system to calibrate my monitor, EPSON 4990 scanner and inkjet...
Thank you JohnnyV!!
How do you set the monitor profile for previewing in SilverFast?

Well, thanks very much for the education on dpi, spi and ppi. It seems like I misunderstood the business about scaling to size and, whenever I'd set my dpi in Silverfast to 300 dpi, the overall dpi...
Thanks, Leonard. This thread raises an interesting question. I had always been told that I really didn't need to scan any of my medium or large-format chromes at greater than 300 dpi because a...
I have a dumb question. I own a 4990 with SilverFast software. I can see where I can adjust the DPI settings using the Silverfast driver but I don't see any setting options for SPI. From what I...
Ted, and everyone, thanks for the replies. I will check out the high-end scanners to get an idea on prices, etc. I appreciate all the info. Ted, do you have a photo web-site?
Ben
Thanks for all the info, I will try out a lab here in Baltimore that does drum scans just to see what the difference would be for a 30x40 or 40x50" print. I really appreciate all the advice, thanks....
What is the difference between the Pulse system and the ColorByte RIP?
I currently have the Monaco EZColor calibration system that I received with my Epson 4990 scanner. It came with the ICC...
I forgot to mention that I do have the Monaco EZColor calibration system that I received with my Epson 4990 scanner. It came with the ICC targets and I'm able to make color profiles for the scanner...
What is the difference between the Pulse system and the ColorByte RIP?
Is the Ethernet referred to in this forum chain worth getting the Pro Bundle for?
Thanks,

Thanks for all the help...
Bruce,
Your point about getting a smaller printer is great advice and I might consider getting the 7800 instead. I do know a couple of colleagues who own 7600s and...
I am planning on buying an Epson 9800 wide-jet printer and was hoping I could get a little advice from the esteemed members of this forum. I am a color photographer (www.benmarcinphotos.com) and use...
