Hi Chris,

No problem with the feeding. The substrate is Pictorico OHP or Agfa CopyJet.
Always the same channel or more true, the new
cyan document created from splitting channels.
With exactly the same size and resulotion as the other two.
Sometimes crooked edge in a way that reminds you of a pincushion distorsion.
Very frustrating.

Talking about getting sepnegs in register.
Another "funny" thing that happens when you use a
very good filmscanner
and scan old slides taken with a bad lens.
Suddenly you discover a lot of chromatic
aberrations.
