manager Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 Hi! I have a Frontier 350, sp2000 lp1500. Is it possible to not turn on the film scanner station in days that I am not using film and still be able to print from the other computer digital images?

leandrocmalves Posted June 15, 2011 Report Share Posted June 15, 2011 Yes, but you need lot of modifications: 1 - KIT FMPC (IF you use C4/5) 2 - If use soft MS, need computer with MS PRINTER. Leandro Alves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXLtdLab Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 My understanding is that the film scanner drives the unit, probably as that was a good bet when the machine was first designed, more than 50% of throughput was coming from scanned film. Unfortunately (for folks like us at least!) that is no longer the case these days. I don't know if the modifications would be worth it. They may far outweigh what I assume you are trying to save on power consumption, in cost. I think there is a digital module to replace the film scanner that is also expensive. There is a lab on the East side of town here that was griping to me about the same thing the other day, so I only know of this anecdotally. We are, fortunately, very very busy with 35mm and MF film, so the Frontier here at the lab is happy as is and we don't have to contemplate these things.

manager Posted July 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 So, with MS computer you don't need firmware update in Printer Frontier 340 or Frontier 350? Just a regular Firewire board and cable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XXLtdLab Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 Leandro: Please prove me wrong and tell me the COST is lower than just leaving the film scanning unit on. I heard that these changes to the frontier so not to need to use the scanner cost a lot of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepe21 Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 it would be a lot easier and less costly to just get an LPC if you dont do film and just digital. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XXLtdLab Posted July 7, 2011 Report Share Posted July 7, 2011 Is that the case here? I read it as he has very low film volume not none at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
