Cezanne Colorgenius software

[Bob McCarthy]

Just checked my user manual. It says avoid ammonia based cleaners.

I don't think I would be afraid of Windex w/o ammonia, if it were mine and was dirty and dingy.

They can be replaced, Screen can provide replacements. It really handicaps your Cezanne as it is a critical part of the imaging process.

I recall examining my calibration strip when I purchased the scanner and it was a bit dingy in areas. I left it alone due to fear of damaging it. Any recommendations on how to clean this?

You'd probably want to use a new scanner wipe, I have the Prazio brand, or a new micro fiber cloth.

Hi,

I have just bought a Cezanne scanner and need some help to get it started up.

I have a G4 which I use for scanning with a Flextight 343
It's got a adaptec 2906 scsi card with a 25 pin connector (on the computers side).
However, the scanner came with a scsi cable with 50 pin connector (SCSI-2 ?)
In the mean time I bought a Adaptec 2930U card with the right connector, but I can't find a driver for it. Or could it be that the driver is in the CROMs on the board?

Or can I use the cable from the flextight (with the 25-pin connector) to connect the scanner?

Thanks for any feedback of how your system is set up

Have you tried it without the driver? Adaptec says it only lists drivers for the systems that are not already supported, which the Mac at that time probably was.
I'm not sure how picky the scanner is in this regard, however. It could be useful to create some shared info on what does and what does not work.

[Peter De Smidt]

I'm not a scsi expert, but I think you'll need the specific connection. I.e., I don't think the 25-pin cable will work.

I think that was a standard apple part. As such, the driver _might_ be included in the operating system. A quick search only brought up Windows drivers.

Hello again,

thanks for the answers.

I installed the 2930CU card and powered up the scanner.
After a while, I got the power and home leds lighting up green and the other two were out so that's good.
But then I tried to install the Colorgenius sotware and here the Mac gave an error message.
It said that the "Classic" application was not found (or something of the likes)
I understand this is because I have a Colorgenius version 1.0.3 ( I have an update to 1.0.4 too) but the OS is X10.2.8
So I need a Colorgenius version 2.x.x I guess.

I've seen some messages treating this issue, but I don't really find a solution.
(Sheepshaver? Buy another Mac running under OS9 ?....)

Any advice would be welcome.
Thanks ,
Pierre

[Peter De Smidt]

Right, CGI needs OS9. Can you dual boot?

Would anyone have an installation file for DustaLaVista that they would be willing to share? It can be created from an installation disk using Disk Utility on the Mac.

I have a Cezanne Elite but unfortunately I am missing this program that would really help for scanning film.

thanks
