Green cast with Microtek i900

[martyn_oliver]

<p>I've just acquired a Microtek Scanmaker i900, mainly in order to scan MF negatives. However, as a precaution I decided to do the recommended calibration using the supplied Kodak targets. So far I've only scanned the reflective target, and, while the machine appears to make a pin-sharp image, it has a very pronounced green cast overall. I'm using a Mac with System 10.5.8 (Leopard), and the results are the same with ScanWizard Pro 7, Vuescan 8.6.24 and Silverfast. I can tune some of it out with ScanWizard's correction panels, but I feel I ought to be using those for fine-tuning rather than for making the initial scan acceptable. Has anyone come across this problem with this or another model?</p>
