Does the Epson Perfection V550 support Digital Ice Technology for both( film and prints ) or only for film? V600 supports both film and print.

It does not appear that Digital Ice is available for prints. When I switch to a print scan (in Professional Mode) the ICE option is grayed out--although "Dust Removal" remains an option. Keep in mind the following caveat from the documentation: "DIGITAL ICE Technology removes dust marks that the Dust Removal setting cannot. However, it takes longer to scan and uses more system resources. It is best to first try removing dust marks using the Dust Removal setting before trying the DIGITAL ICE Technology setting; you cannot select both at the same time. Note: Do not use the DIGITAL ICE Technology setting to scan originals that do not contain dust or scratch marks; your scanned images may appear distorted. Images scanned with DIGITAL ICE Technology may appear softer than your original images."

am on the 3rd replacement, do not buy this printer. It has many paper feed problems.According to Epson, the rollers are very sensitive. It rarely prints on cardstock at any setting and neither does it do Avery biz cards. According to Epson- it is not compatible with Avery. Where do they live? On the moon?Oh yes, it does print good photos- but that seems to be its only specialty.

ICE uses infrared light THROUGH the negative to identify dust. As such, it only works with color film, and won't even work with B/W silver negatives. Therefore, only software based dust removal is available for reflective scans like photo prints. This is included as an option as well. Greg

I use it to print on heavy stock two sided. Works great. I have used it to print on heavy photo stock, works great. I never tried vinyl, but that rear paper tray makes a straight path through the jets with only a slight bend, so I don't see why it wouldn't work. It's not a fast printing machine, but it's efficient and the Bluetooth feature and price makes it worthwhile to me.

I asked at both Walgreen and Costco if they process my TMAX film and they said they do not since they only process C41 film. So I did some research and found a website, The Darkroom, and they do process this film. They actually can process this film and make prints from b&w paper. The results were great.

No, there's no digital screen for you to see the photo before you print. You only see the photo after you print it and it develops, just like the old Polaroids!

Yes, the V600 will scan a negative and then send the information to a photo printer. In the V600 user manual this is explained under "Using the Scanner as a Copier". Thanks for asking the question as I did not realize this.

What they are referring to is the ability of a dedicated printer, such as the Epson Artisan 50 or my earlier Epson Stylus Photo R220 to print directly on the disk using a tray or special disk path. I have been using the R220 for over 5 years and will no longer buy any disks that wont allow direct printing. If you have a label you can still apply it to these disks, but many printers are reasonably priced and if you do enough printing it may be worth looking at another printer just for the disks. Beware that as with any inkjet you need to use it on a regular basis to keep the ink flowing....

After downloading the product manual, it says "35mm slides are NOT supported." Yeesh! What a shame. I guess the cheapest Canon that can support it is the 5600F. The Epson V300 has good reviews, though, too.

Not sure. The question I would be asking is what type of inks can the Machine use. HP makes a line of machines that are capable of handling assorted types of inks for printing on films. You may need to break out a second mortgage on your house to get one.

CanoScan has been a great tool. I know nothing about the Epson. I wouldn't get too fired up about high resolutions that either machine is capable of because it's likely you'll not have the time to use the capability if you have a lot of scanning to do.

Buy Mr. Hamricks Vuescan. I used it with the Epson Perfection 2450 and got amazing results. Vuescan has built in drivers to use the V700 with OSX.

Hi Sean, Sorry It took so long. I had to ask Fujitsu to Answer this Question. I have no personal experience with that scanner so I had to do a little research. Here are a few things I found SV600 vs Xcanex Up 1200dpi vs 300dpi 11x17 max vs Letter max CCD optics vs CMOS Currently supports MAC vs support sometime in 2014 Another thing I noticed is when book scanning the Xcanex can only do one side at a time. We can do both sides in a single scan and our software flattens out any curves and skews. Thanks Anthony J Argy Sr Full Color Copier Inc.

I use this paper with an HP printer...the old HP Photosmart D7460 that I've had for years. It works beautifully and the colors are outstanding. I hardly use photopaper anymore since I discovered this stuff. However, I prefer the Epson double-sided inkjet paper. I like the Ultra Premium, but it's sometimes difficult to tell which side to print on. With the double-sided paper, it doesn't matter and you can print on both sides. I do that when I'm doing die cutting that requires folding cut pieces of a die...then the "back" color contrasts nicely with the front color.
