I bought this scanner and have had no luck getting the software to install properly, let alone get the unit itself running. I went to photographyreview.com and their site noted that a)Tamarack is out of business and b) that I needed to get Documan 3.0 software to run my scanner properly, not the 2.3 version that came with my unit.
I went online to Tamarack’s barebones support site and downloaded all the patches and installed them. Still no results.
Since Tamarack is OOB and Documan is their software, I’m out of luck! AArgh! Does anyone have a copy of 3.0 they can burn for me and mail to me? I’d be willing to pay for time & materials.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Otherwise, I have a very expensive … paperweight.
Thanks,

The scanner does an average job. Great for achiving slides. For windows XP you need Documan 3.01

I bought the 2400 FS Film Scaner( Tamarack) two months ago, since very begining it hasn’t work properly. I use DocuMan 2.07 and I’m searching for a version 3.0. I have scenned 300 slides with quite good result but negatives are unacceptable! Maybe version 3.0 will help? Where can I find it? I would be pleased with any help. Is the problem of dark edges tipical ?

When I could get this unit to work, it was ok. But since the manufacturer went out of business in August 2000, tech support is nil, and I can’t get it to work on a new machine.
