• Fully tested Imacon 848 scanner
Please see full res target chart scan as well as the scanner hardware data/info from FC: Note the total scans on this machine are less than 6200 passes, a ridiculously low number
• The FIREWIRE port on this scanner IS NOT WORKING, however, it is still fully compatible with modern Windows PC computers
• We STRONGLY recommend running this on a PC/Windows machine, we can supply you with a working PC machine that works right out of the box (use pull down menu to select this option)
• This scanner has NON FUNCTIONAL FIREWIRE PORTS consequentially, it uses its native, onboard SCSI II connection ONLY

SCSI Conditions:
• This 848 scanner can be used with SCSI ONLY, firewire ports are not working
• Using SCSI is the most stable and reliable way to work with Imacon's in our era due to the failing FW ports on all machines. It is also easy and simple to do with any modern PC computer. Any SCSI card can be used and the scanner can be supplied with your choice of HD50-DB25 or HD50-CN50/HD50 cables
• SCSI is slightly slower than FW (25-30% reduction in file transfer speed), in this case, the max res scan making the largest possible fire this scanner can produce (close to 800MB) will take about 3 minutes, the full res 35mm vertical scan of the target chart (last photo) took about 60 seconds.
• Due to the fact this is a SCSI only machine, this scanner is compatible ONLY with the last SCSI versions of the FlexColor software (4.0.3PC) which is free to download from Hasselblad's website (and other free online sources, we can provide the install file as well if needed)
• We are happy to help set up and install this scanner on any PC machine, sorry, we cant help you with a MAC install. We are happy to provide a basic tutorial on using this scanner (45 minutes) at no cost
• Scanner is ready to work right out of the box
