Mike,
All you need do to remove the color fringing is a "hard" reboot of your
PhotoSmart. Unplug the scanner at the wall socket, then plug it it back in
after a minute or so. The fringing only happens when the scanner is in slide
mode.
You're right about the original negs---they will give you a better scan because
they are originals, and also because the PhotoSmart is a much better negative
scanner than a slide scanner. Also, the so-called slides are heavily cropped
when printed, in addition to the little bit lost by the slide mount. I don't
know how SFW sent you the negs, but I know Dale Labs wound them up tight in
little red cannisters, and they are a pain in the ass to flatten and scan.
Good luck.
Morgan
