sg_brix Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 I have a Microtek Scanmaker 9800 XL that I have done several 4 color pictorial books from color prints with great result. I never got the Microtek TMA 1600 Transparent Media Adapter when I bought it and now have several project in converting litho film from old printing flats all b&w negatives 9x12". It is nearly all just line art text from book printing. Since I got the negatives we like to scan these to tiff files instead of scanning the previously printed books. My question is simply this, have anyone done this kind of work? Will the TMA 1600 do the job or is there a better solution. Thanks, SG Brix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dickhilker Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 If it's anything like my Microtek 1000XL, it should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upscan Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Hi: With 8X10 The resolution of the 9800 XL should be more than ample for huge blowups. This scanner is one step down from the 1000XL but still it has more than enough resolution for what you intend doing. In fact I doubt that you Will find an improvement using 8X10 if you got the 1000XL. Julio www.scanscience.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
