I am considering a Screen purchase, as most of you know, information is hard to come by..... a few questions... 1. When did Screen stop making the 1030ai...
Welcome to the group, Bill! I believe the 1030ai ceased production in 1995, and it is just recently that they stopped supporting the unit. What this means for...
Hi Bill, I believe Tom has already answered some of your questions, I may be able to add a bit: I've never heard of the 1030AI running anything but Screens...
Gustav, thanks for you comments..... ... I read this a lot, and have owned drum scanners, but never high end flat beds, so I never had the ability to do a head...
Does anyone know if there exists a mounting station for the 1030 that has a compression roller? (The standard Screen station does not.) Does anyone wet-mount...
Hello, René: Yes, difficult to oil-mount multiple smaller originals or larger transparencies without that roller! Prazio (www.prazio.com) probably makes the...
Ernst, Do you find significant advantage with oil mounting? I had heard that the advantages were slight, and could be approximated in Photoshop (i.e. cleanup)....
Thanks Ernst! I had been wondering the same thing...sure appreciate the information! Cheers Tom Hamp Prairie Light Photography www.PrairieLight.org ...
Hi, Tom: When doing separations from transparencies the old fashioned way with enlargers and process cameras before the days of scanners, we used Edwal "No...
I think that should be with the emulsion facing toward the drum Cheers Gustav ... From: alex wright To: Screen1030ai@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, December 15,...
Alex, all of the scanner operators that I know mount emulsion down so one has a right-reading image opening in Photoshop. However, when scanning transparencies...
Sorry I haven't been active on the group here... Believe it or not, I now have two 1030ai's - both working fine as far as I know. But have not had the time to...

Tom, congratulations with your retirement. I know quite a few people who have retired and are busier (and having more fun) then ever! A scanner for each hand...
Alex, I too use the Prazio Montage Gel, and a good mineral oil (heavy) works very well too. In my years of mounting transparencies on scanners (since 1978 or...
Alex / Ernest There is a nice video presentation at the Aztek website. It does not use the second layer of Mylar, but it is a good visual of how to mount. ...
A good little demo that covers the basics, thanks, René! BTW, forgot to mention that I only use that second scrap of mylar over the first so that the...
Happy New Year, Alex (and Group)! Yes, would not be very happy at all with air pockets such as your sample! A number of comments as below if I might... ... We...
I am starting to scan black and white negatives and I am having a hard time getting decent highlights and shadows from the scans. Even after lots of testing...
Alex Thanks for the advice on scanning the negatives. I did try it, but the B&W negatives I was working with were thin and had little contrast. The resulting...
Apologies to the group for the recent spam message from 'Kevin'. Have removed the message and banned the member. Take care, have fun...it's a nasty world out...
Alex, scanner operators all used to use mineral oil, there was no other products made specifically for this purpose in years past. We used to (and still do) go...
Does anyone know how to profile the 1030? I have no idea how color management works on the Mac, especially in OS 8.2. I also do not have any software other...
René, that's the only way I know to do this. As long as you calibrate consistently, use the same wide-open aimponts for all transparencies, etc. you should be...
Ernst – thank you for confirming that that I am using the correct method. I do have a current copy of the scanning guide, but I was not aware of all the...
Dear Group: If you are scanning to a server over a LAN, and you have upgraded that server to 10.4.9, you may find that the network connection shuts down as you...
Thank you Ernst...I expect I will need this in the coming weeks. Moving to a Mac system most likely for networking...those new Intel machines are just too cool...
Ernst- Could you email me the file AppleFileServer.app v3.1.4? I've over written it already... Mine isn't shutting down, but it is going very very slowly... ...
