Brendan, If you want to see even more improvement, download VueScan (if you don't already use it). It's faster, better and more robust than using the Twain software that comes with most scanners.
I believe it may provide better scans than the Silverfast software that comes with the Epsons. Cheers, Dave (oh.... http://www.hamrick.com for vuescan) <snip> Actually I need to retact what I said about the Epson 1680 before. I just got the new drivers for XP and the scan quality has improved greatly. This was the first test with the new drivers and the out of focus problems are gone, this scan was only reduce in size, no unsharp mask or colour correction nothing. http://webhome.idirect.com/~trini/flowers2/por.jpg </snip> -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
