You cannot calibrate it with Epsons software so you need a third party device. Silverfast can be bought with IT8 software and a calibration target which can be a slide or a print depending on your needs. Basically you scan the target which the measures the values it scans against a reference set of values that describe your target. The scanners characteristics are then changed to match the reference values. That then becomes your scanners profile and gets rid of the magenta cast that I suspect you've got. Mine did. You don't have to have Silverfast to calibrate though. I would contact Neil Barstow on that front. I do like Silverfast but its more than some people want or need. Have a look at Vuescan from Hamrick. Its $40 I think. I don't know if you can calibrate with it though. HTH.
