Reflective or Tx, Neil?
I'm no SilverFast expert, but this may well be attributable to the Gamma
chosen in the Options window - even with all other settings nulled
(option-click on Option button).
Doing a high-bit scan is another problem. There are no corrections
available in high-bit and the scan is made with a gamma of 1 - regardless
of the option chosen - resulting in a very muddy image that requires
drastic moves in PS to correct. High-bit or not, it's a waste of
pixels, if you ask me.
