Optex Film Scanner

I have an Optex Digital Scanner for 35mm Slides and Negatives. It uses USB 2.0 and I only have Windows software with it. Is there a scanning software that I can use that will recognize this scanner or is there a place I can find a mac driver for this unit?

Any thoughts?

eMac, Mac OS X (10.5.6)

Unlikely you will get a reply from a six year old thread!


Your problem, hardware or software, may not be exactly the same as that of the original poster of this older thread, and it can be very confusing for everybody if we try to answer more than one question in each thread, which can also result in you applying the wrong advice to your particular problem.


In order for us to give your problem our proper attention to try to solve it, would you kindly start your own thread, describing the trouble you are having in the fullest detail, including completing your details to show what Mac or iDevice you are using, what operating system, and what version of the application in question. Please remember to post in the forum relevant to your hardware or version of OS X. A full list of all the support forums is here:

Is your scanner a Optex DIGISCAN2 Digital Scanner? If so, I saw a spec page that said it requires OS 10.4.3 or higher.

Also, what model eMac do you have? It may only have USB 1.1. The scanner should still work, but be much slower than OSB 2.0.
