> hello, i've recently gotten an epson perfection 4490 photo scanner, which works fairly well except that xsane will not scan in its optical resolution of 4800x4800 dpi and none of several frontends i've tried, including iscan downloaded from epson's own website, can access the scanner's infrared dust removal (digital ice) when scanning film. looking through mailing list archives, i've found that ir dust removal is and has long been supported in a few other scanners, such as the nikon coolscan series, and so i was wondering what, if anything, can be done to utilize dust removal in this scanner. thank you all for your time.


 Hello,

  the infrared channel is not actually supported in SANE as the
 required frame type is missing from the specs. Sorry.
