Making Adjustments in Epson Twain 5.X.X

 

 

This bulletin was created to inform you of a procedure for making adjustments in Epson Twain 5.X.X

Description:

01)When using the TPU (transparency adapter) in manual mode or auto mode the scanned image is not correctly detected.

02) The scanned TPU image has a color cast to it.

Solution:

01)If Epson twain is in full auto mode:

a)Click “Cancel” and then “Manual” to get into manual mode.

b)Click on the “Configuration tab”

c)Remove the check mark or dot from “Auto Thumbnail” option.

i.This will allow “manual” selection for the TPU type of film.

ii.This will allow “manual” marquees.

02)If the scanned TPU image has a color cast:

a)Marquee the image making sure none of the border of the film strip/slide is included.

b)Do a magnified preview of the marquee to verify border.

c)Using the “tools” bar (color wheel, wench and screwdriver) make final adjustments to the image.

i.Click on “Settings” and clear “User Defined” and give these settings a name (e.g. “positive film”).

ii.When scanning similar images in the future, this new color correction can be selected from the “Settings” option.
