[filmscanners] Re: IT8 calibration & SS 120

Simon,

In SilverFast there is a button on the image panel (six down) called "Job 
Manager" that will
permit you to preview and scan all four images in the carrier.  Make sure you 
click the
"6X6" and then click the third button from the left at the bottom of the "Job 
Manager"
panel.  Another applet will appear and it's fairly self explanatory.
