We have a flatbed Epson scanner with a special top for scanning slides,
negatives, etc., but our images are consistently dark and a little
fuzzy. Is there anything we can do to our equipment to make it better,
or do we need to get a special machine that's specifically designed for
scanning transparent images? Do those machines take slides, or do you
have to remove the paper frame? Thanks for any advice!
