How do I update Negafix profiles for Epson 1640XL?

[David Anderson]

I bought my 1640XL only a few days ago and I'm just starting to get to grips with using SilverFast Ai 5.5. My first point of confusion is that SilverFast (as installed from the CD) does not seem to list many negative film types and the NegaFix download facility on the LSI website specifically excludes Epson scanners.

So how do I update the list of supported film types for my Epson scanner?

You do this by updating the entire SilverFast software.

Thanks for the rapid clarification. However, don't you think that it would be much more useful, especially to first time users, if you made this point clear on the NegaFix profile download web page?

I did wonder whether or not a full SilverFast update download might update these profiles, but I did not want to launch a lengthy 12MB download (via modem) just on the off chance. A one line comment on your web page would remove such doubts.
