I hardly use anything as fancy as a 4990, but I do use an elderly Epson Perfection 1200S and have no trouble scanning negatives. What software are you using to drive the scanner? And what options do you have set on your TWAIN menu?

Marc

Thanx for your response.

1. The only software I have is what it came bundled with, whatever that is.
2.  What is a TWAIN menu?
