Using existing Silverfast on Circon and Quickstep scanners

[phanna]

I have two unused copies of Silverfast 6 which were supplied with two microtek scanners (which are running on Scan Wizard 6.14).

How can I get the Siverfast software to work on my two old Heidelberg scanners as the readme file says that these versions will only work on the microtek scanners? Will I have to buy full versions again or is there a plug in or patch available? The grand plan is to upgrade everything from OS 9.2.2 to OS X

Cheers.

Dear PHanna

thank you for your interest in LaserSoft Imaging's software products.

SilverFast is developed specifically for each command set and chipset of a given scanner model range in order to achieve our goal: optimal scanning results.
Thus you cannot use a SilverFast Version developed for one scanner for a different one, even if the scanners in question come from the same manufacturer.

However, as an established customer with SilverFast you are eligible for a discount price. Please contact our sales department for further information.

Kind regards
