I wanted to re-post this question I asked yesterday.
Some background info: even though we have a SS4000,
the negs in question were only scanned at 600dpi. Is
what I described above a direct result of the scan
resolution? Or is it more directly related to the
pre-scan dialog? My problem right now is that the
scanner is in (for everyones convenience) a more
centrally located position and I'm not sure what the
scan settings were. I do plan on re-scanning within a
week.

Thanks,
Alan
