Troubleshooting

Inquiry on the SCSI bus. This would include SCSI Probe, most disk utilities, and back­

up software.

Problem: The wat<h cursor keeps turning at the end of acquiring an image and

the image never appears. Computer seems 'locked up' and system
needs to be rebooted.

Cause*

Probably using a Quadra 800/840AV, Centris 610/650/660AV or possibly

Quadra 900/950 computer. May also happen when using PLI disk drives with an

auto-mounting extension/init.

Solution:

Need Nikon software update 4.5.1 to resolve problem with these com­

puters’ SCSI Managers. Call Nikon for new software or download from Nikon bul­

letin board services (BBS), such as America Online, keyword “Nikon.” If using a

Syquest drive with auto-mount init, this must be disabled.

• Problem: When I attempt to run the Nikon Scanner plug-in software through

Fractal Design Painter I can't activate any buttons.

Action:

Before attempting to use the Nikon Scanner plug-in with Painter close

all open windows and palettes.

Problem: Getting "Error -32008" when either previewing or scanning.

Cause:

Dark or ‘contrasty’ film requires very long scan time, causing SCSI

to ‘timeout.’

Solution:

Remove film strip holder and restart scanner. Obtain updated Nikon

software version 4.5.1 from Nikon Technical Support, or download via BBS.

Problem: Getting "Error type 1" or "Error code 108: Not enough memory" when

scanning with Nikon Control.

Cause:

Not enough memory allocated to application.

Solution:

Allocate more memory to Nikon Control. The default value is too low if

using the large dialog and needs to be increased to 8Mb, minimum.

Problem: "Error -21000" when previewing or scanning.

Cause:

Film strip holder may have been left inside scanner during power-up. SCSI

cables may not be connected properly or film strip holder not inserted all the way.

Solution:

Power down system and Coolscan. Remove and reattach SCSI cable to

Nikon
