Oggetto: Re: Heidelberg A3 Scanners
Dear Neil,
QUBYX is not related to QUATOGRAPHIC. I think you are right, that
QUATOGRAPHIC AG is in bankruptcy, but anyway they do not sell the A3
scanner, you know as Heidelberg / PFU scanners.
QUBYX is selling this scanners, and will do so in the future. You are
right, our scanner LynX A3 is maybe cheaper than the Linoscan 2650
was, but we did not reduced prices to clean up stock. The scanner is
still produced, and will be produced in the future.
QUBYX scanners are compatible Windows XP and MacOS X, and for sure
they come with two IT8 targets for calibration.
Since Silverfast version 5.5 the image quality increased a lot, as
even the preview works with Lasersoft's rawdata system.
Maybe you want to test again?
regards
Marc Leppla

I think I had an e-mail from Qubyx or was it Quatto going out of business.
They had reduced prices on any inventory left. Might be risky though as if
the take orders while under bankruptcy you could lose everything.
Advantage of Silverfast is it's continuity to PC, and MacOs X eventually. It
will work on either or Linotype branded or Quato branded PFU scanners.
The testing I've done shows inferior scans through the same scanner , same
profile on Silverfast compared to Linocolor. If it's application driven
scanning and not just raw scan dumps then Linocolor is the way to go.
They have an IT8 calibration kit that works well enough as an additional
price. The Heidelberg editions come with it. I'd say that since this is a
very good transparency scanner , a separate IT8 transparency is required for
profiling in any case.
