David_Cavan Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 <p>I don't know what scanner you have, but I'm wondering whether there is a resolution setting that has changed when you upgraded Silverfast? It almost looks as if you have a very low resolution output here.</p> Dave Cavan https://davecavanphotographics.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lauren_macintosh Posted November 12, 2012 Author Share Posted November 12, 2012 <p>David its set at 233. dpi is this the figure you speak of :</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David_Cavan Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 <p>That's fairly low, Lauren. Can you try setting it to something higher, say 600, to see what the result is?</p> Dave Cavan https://davecavanphotographics.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wogears Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 <p>233 dpi is fine; the histo in your first shot indicates almost no blacks at all.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
konrad_michniewicz Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 <p>Lauren, you may have to change the "Document" type to Print. It may be set for Photos.<br> <br />If you're not sure how to setup your scanner software, visit...<br> <p>Konrad</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JosvanEekelen Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 You seem to be scanning black & white. See if things improve with greyscale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
