Consult Windows Troubleshooting. In Windows Device Manager, double-clicking the Imaging Device results in This device cannot start. The installation wizard seems to run correctly until the end, when it concludes by stating something to the effect of cannot finish install. However, the scanner driver is a problem. If your only choice is WIA it is likely your scanner driver isn’t installed. Hopefully that will tell you the name of your scanner driver if it is installed. Once it is installed go File Select TWAIN Source. I would suggest selecting “Images Only” when it asks for file associations during install. Either you didn’t install the driver or you aren’t finding it for some reason.ĭownload and install the free Irfanview at. It wouldn’t have the sophistication to invert a negative and remove the orange.Īll film scanners have drivers with that ability. My guess is that the applications you are scanning with are using the Windows WIA scanner driver. If I happened to have a VuPoint Solutions film scanner I could probably give you some detailed instructions. It is probably listed in All Programs under the scanner name or the name of the driver.

“Acquire” from software should open the scanner driver interface, but I think you might develop an understanding better to work directly with the driver. Often scanners put an icon in the system tray and there might be a physical button on the scanner to open the scanner driver.

You will likely find it under Start All Programs. You can scan directly from the scanner driver to a folder without involving software. Scan directly from the driver and avoid PhotoImpressions and ArcSoft until you get the driver set and learn to operate without other software intervening. “Transparency” means positive slide where “Film” or “Negative” would be the source you want to select. Any film scanner will have a negative source setting that inverts the image and removes the orange.

Grub around the scanner driver file menu and look for “Source”. I could also choose 'copy' from the scanner itself with same results. I have removed, unistalled and installed but still get a negative when I hit 'acquire'. The software works fine but its only copying a larger image of the negative, not producing a picture. It comes with Arcsoft Software Suite and PhotoImpression 6 on the same disk. Users manual states 'supports Windows XP and USB 2.0 only' which I have. I recently purchased this scanner FS-C1-VP to print pictures from old negatives and slides.
