Problems with automatic IT8-calibration

I own a "reflecta DigitDia 4000" magazine scanner and use the IT8-calibration method to adjust colours, brightness and so on.
My software version is SilverFast Ai v6.4.4r7 for Windows.

Unfortunately the results of my calibration attempts (100% according to the manual) are quite poor as you can see below.

Is anybody able to help me or to give me a hint how to proceed?

Many thanks in advance,
Dirk

Dear Dirk

after an IT8 calibration is performed, you can check yourself if it worked correctly by comparing the LAB data for the colour patches with the according values laid down in the target's reference file.

If you sure that something cannot be right, however, please don't hesitate to contact support: https://www.silverfast.com/problemreport/en.html

You will receive a "ticket opened" confirmation email. Please reply to this one by hinting to this forum topic entry. Also, I could need an "48 HDR color" scan of the target with (very) roughly 1600x1200 pixels (needs to be of less than five megabytes in) size in TIFF format, in order to further examine your problem.
Thank you in anticipation of your kind co-operation.
