Hi RussPhoto!

A PC version won't work I'm afraid. There is a reason that Adaptec has different cards for Macs and PCs.
They have a different BIOS on the cards and I believe that the voltage is...

Hi Corran,

Thanks! That's what I do, scan as a positive and then invert, but it's just not the same.
I know that with other flatbeds they cannot capture all the color, because the color goes out...

On another note, has anyone any experience with scanning cross processed slides on the Cezanne?

I know that consumer scanners cannot scan them properly (I tried it with an Epson v850). But is it...

Hi all,

First of all a happy new year to you!

It took a bit longer to return because of an eye infection, but I am finally back.

Tony, I checked the bearing and it's working just fine...

Hi Tony no worries, thanks so much for replying!

What I mean with that the image seems to be clearer towards the middle, is width-wise. where I place it length-wise doesn't make a difference.
So...

Thanks Peter! I'll try to contact him

kshaub103, the service manual says this about your error:

1102 Scanner initialization error: Left cover is open.
Remedy: Close the left cover and reset the scanner

Are you sure it's closed and...

Thanks Coisasdavida! It is indeed different from the manuals I have. It has not resolved my issue, but it sure does provide a lot of information.
I've ben in contact with the distributor here in the...

Then I took one film strip and scanned it separately Along the long side on the outer edges of the scanning bed, so close to the front of the scanner and the back, close to the hinges and finally in...

Ok, so I've done several tests and it seems that towards the sides of the scanning bed, the quality deteriorates. Now I don't know the exact setup for the optical unit, but it seems every time that...

@Clickwrr: Sure! This is the link: https://we.tl/w5SmdGzsdR

Since Screen doesn't sell or officially services the Cézanne anymore, I guess they were OK to send me the service manual.

@Corran, yes I've placed it on a solid table with a thick steel frame and legs.

Peter, what would you use for the vertical rails? So what I mean is the shorter, single rail

It seems that my rails have lubricated before. There are some remnants of a thicker grease along with...

I'm running the latest firmware that is available for the original Cézanne. I'm actually running it on a mac pro 2.1 with an ATTO UL5D and OSX 10.6.8. I actually thought about downgrading to see if...

Thanks coisasdavida! I'll be sure to check the rails again and see if there's anything sticky. Do you have any recommendations for lubricating the rails?

@everybody, I contacted Screen Europe and...

Hi Bryan, Peter, thanks for replying so quickly! I am in contact with Screen here in the Netherlands and their distributor to order lamps.
As you said, they're expensive but regardless of whether...

Sorry, I've had a monstrous week but I'm finally able to reply. Thanks for your input! I always use the same film: Kodak Tri-X, pushed to 1600 and developed in HC-110. The grain is very familiar to...

Ok, so I've cleaned the bed thoroughly and triple checked that it was absolutely spotless. It's really crystal clear now!
I've done three passes, at 4000 spi, 5300 spi and at 6000 spi, since I read...

Hi Peter,

Yes I'm pretty confident about that unless there is an option that I have overlooked. Normally I always check that sharpening has been turned off. I have replaced the bulbs (I took the...

Hi Peter,

Mostly I'm using the standard bed with the big hold down plate that was supplied with it (the big one with the handles) as that allows me to load a whole roll of film in one go.
I've...

Hi Peter,

Thanks for replying!
No, I don't get any warnings. It just says scan finished normally.
I've thought about the autofocus as well, but it does work when I set the resolution lower. It...

Hi all,

First of all I would like to say that I'm so happy with all the information you're providing and with this thread in general. Thank you! Though I haven't been active before, you've been of...
