Question Epson scanner changes color negative scan to a green tint when Verifying using Epson Twain ?

[wa4ywm]

I tried a Twain forum but could not get an answer. If this is the wrong place, please direct me to a good forum.

I have an Epson 1640SU scanner that I use for scanning all types of slides and negatives (color and B&W).

The only item I have any trouble with is scanning color negatives. When the scan is complete, the result looks good. However, as soon as I select "Close" in TWAIN the scanned negative displays as darker with a strong green tint. This is displayed on the TWAIN window that is asking for Finish Verification.

I have tried numerous settings which only alter the original scan and I have tried to find a solution on various forums with no luck.

I am using a Windows XP PC.

Please help.

If you save the file does the color change also in that file or is the issue only in the preview display? Maybe you have some adjustment set on it.

Thanks for answering.

Preview and Scan both result in a proper display of the photo - the color is good.

Then I select Close. The Verification window is displayed. The photo at that point has developed the green tint. When the photo is saved, it retains the green tint.
