DM Special Edition WideCom Upgrade Our most popular upgrade - we can breathe new life into your tired old WideCom SLC836, 936, or 1036 scanner! Our exclusive work includes a complete ground-up refurbishing, repair of the most common problems (including circuit boards), a glass replacement, installation of sound and vibration damping materials, and a precision alignment and calibration. We then replace the stock rear panel with an improved design that virtually eliminates paper jams, and allows easy access to the glass and roller for cleaning. For architectural, mapping and reprographics applications, we also offer a thick media option. This includes our special "flip open" front panel and paper sensor switch, a combination which provides the user with enhanced control of the document path, and allows for the scanning of media up to .4" thick. Your scanner will once again be on par with the latest new models at a fraction of their cost. You'll be amazed at the difference! Repair/replacement of excessively worn, damaged, or missing components at additional cost. Please allow us 2 weeks to perform the operation. Standard Upgrade:
$1,995.00 Thick Media Option: add $500
OEM Shipping Crates - Need to ship your scanner somewhere? Be careful. They've got fragile glass and lenses and very critical alignments. Don't chance potential "totalization" with non-professional packing! We stock most popular OEM shipping crates to ensure that your scanner arrives in the same condition than when it was packed. Prices vary according to make and model.

Old Zeke's Tec Tip #10
When installing a SCSI or Firewire interface into a computer,
try to free up as many hardware resources as possible.
Remove or disable anything that you are not using, such
as serial, parallel, USB ports, and sound cards. Especially
them dang sound cards. |

Copy Kit - Turn your late model Contex, Ideal, Vidar or GTCO/Calcomp
scanner into a walk-up copy center. Includes JETimage Software
and Touch Screen Arm (touch screens are available separately). This is the same basic package that some vendors bundle together with a Contex scanner and market as solutions like the HP DesignJet Scanner 4200. Similar products are also available for Colortrac scanners.

Old Zeke's Tec Tip #11
It's not a good idea to have more than one scanner interface
in a computer. Nor is it a good idea to have two different
kinds of scanner drivers on the same PC. The thing of
it is, they may not like each other and can give you a
heck of a time! |

Glass - The next time that you
clean your scanner, take a good look at the glass. If you see
only a slight scratch or two, you're probably ok for a while.
But if your scans start showing vertical streaks or if the glass
is so worn that it looks like it's frosted, better replace it. This is especially crucial for quality color scans.
We carry glass for most popular makes and models. Prices vary,
and installation is available.
Call Us
Background Plates - Often neglected,
these play an important role in the calibration and normalization
of camera machines. If your background plate is scratched or
worn, or if you just can't get it white anymore, replacing it
will make a big difference in your scanner's performance. Prices
vary according to the scanner's make and model. Installation
available.
Call Us
Lamps - If you see that evil
"out of light camera A" message flashing on your scanner's
front panel, chances are your lamp is burned out. Or, if your
color scanner just won't calibrate, one of multiple lamps may
have gone south... Prices vary, and installation is available.

Old Zeke's Tec Tip #12
It's always a good idea to have a host computer for your
large format scanner that is DEDICATED to do scanning
and little else. Keep it simple. You can always network
it to the other computers in your office that do all the
fancy stuff. |

Old Zeke's Tec Tip #13
Before starting a batch job of large format color scans,
it's a good idea to defragment your hard drive if you
haven't done it recently. As a rule of thumb, make sure
that you have at least 3 TIMES the hard drive space free
that you will need to store your images. |
