| Amazon.com Product Description |
| The ArtiScan 2400FS color film scanner is a compact, easy-to-use film and slide scanning solution. With 36-bit color depth and 2,400 x 4,800 dpi optical resolution, the scanner provides high-quality images and simple operation, making it perfect for business professionals. Plus, it's compact, measuring only 8 by 4.4 by 4.6 inches. The 2400FS features parallel input and pass-through connections; however, it also comes with a USB adapter cable to make the unit operate as a USB device. Installation involves inserting the DocuMan CD-ROM, connecting the cable to the PC and scanner, and stepping through the Add New Hardware wizard. This process places a scanner icon on to your desktop, which you can use to start the driver software. It's important to note the USB interface will not work with Windows NT 4.0. The 2400FS is also TWAIN compliant, so it's an ideal companion for your TWAIN-compatible applications. Cartridges are included to hold six-frame 35mm negative strips or four slides. These cartridges slide directly into the front of the scanner where a motor feeds them through to the rear. Simple LEDs for power, ready status, and busy status provide basic status information about scanner operation. Tamarack Technologies' DocuMan 2.07 serves as the anchor of the software bundle. It provides a desktop-style interface--similar to Visioneer's PaperPort--that organizes scanned images and includes functions to scan directly to a printer, fax, or e-mail. Also included is the company's DocuPal 1.0 software for image handling and constructing complex, professional looking documents. Adobe PhotoDeluxe is also included for user-friendly image editing. |

2400 FS also runs off the parallel port under Windows 98
2003-07-12

| I got the 2400 FS to run off the parallel port under Windows 98 using a male/female 25D to 25D cable. The driver is part of Windows. Only later did I get the scanner to work with Windows 2000 using the USB driver. At first under Windows 2000 the Documan program kept hanging up at the opening screen. After about an hour of fiddling around it started working. This is good value for money, but you may need to fiddle with it a bit to get the drivers to work with your computer setup. I am rating it as a 3 because the manual is [poor] and the manufacturer has gone out of business. Otherwise it would be a 5. |

Tamarack Technologies 2400 FS Film Scanner

You get what you pay for!

| My first disappointment with this scanner was that I could never get it installed on my Win 2000 Pro PC. I was able to get it to work with Win 98 SE without a hitch. It worked great for a few weeks before I began noticing streaks in scans run at more than 1200 dpi. I contacted Tamarack and they acted like they had never seen this problem before. They sent me a replacement scanner that, once again, began streaking after a week or so. I think I was able to figure out what is going on: dust on the optical sensor. When I blast the sensor with canned air, the streaking is reduced, but not completely eliminated. Unless you live in a clean room, you will probably have dust streaking with this machine. I'd recommend this scanner for folks looking to do scans of less than 600 dpi where dust isn't as much of a problem. |
