Support for Epson 1670Photo and/or HP SJ3970c

Postby sertal » Wed Sep 17, 2003 6:15 pm

Hello,
in the next days I'll buy a new scanner: I'm currently make my decision between the Epson 1670 Photo and the HP SJ3970c (both available in European/Italy market).

1) Do you plan to support these scanners in SilverFast AI? When?

2) Can I use HDR instead of AI in the meanwhile? The real question is: can the Epson/HP software bundled with the scanner acquire images in the raw format handled by HDR?

Thanks a lot.

I am going to purchase an Epson Perfection 1670 scanner and

"I hope LaserSoft will offer Silverfast scanner software for this new Epson model. "

Should I hope SilverFast Ai for Epson 1670 Photo will support MultiSampling? :D

Support for Epson 1670 unlikely to be implemented

Postby LSI_Noack » Thu Dec 11, 2003 1:36 am

I am sorry to break this bad news to you, but it isn't very likely that SilverFast will be able to implement support for the Epson 1670.

However, we will try - but please don't expect a version ready for the market before the second quarter of 2004. And be prepared that there won't be such thing altogether.

And no: SilverFast for either 1660 or 1680 will not work, because the 1670 has a specific chip. It's no use trying.
