In the input tab selsect lock exposure.  when this is checked and you do an
additional preview, you can lock the colour balance as well.  I generally
do scan with the white balance set, however I usually set it to somewhere
between ,06 and .1.  this works very well for my setup.

With respect to file size to printers, Bob Frost, statement that desktop
printers require 720 dpi for the file size is news to me.  I still think
that just because the printer lays down ink at anywhere between 720 and
2880 for matte paper does not mean I need to give it a file that size.
Nothing I have read anywhere else seems to support this.nor does my own
printing experience support it either.  The discussions i have read with
respect to desktop printers, was that any data greater than 360 dpi is
discarded when the image is processed by the driver
