Well, I've spent my hard earned shekels and installed an Espon V750  
Pro scanner and an Epson Photo R2400 printer.  Scanned in a nice B/W  
taken with the old black/nickel Leica II & Elmar 3.5/50cm.  Figured  
I'd marry up the old and the new for the maiden voyage.  Fire up Adobe  
Lightroom 1.3 on the new iMac and go through the basic learning  
curve.  I go to print and low and behold it worked!  First blush it  
looks good but then I look closer in the shadows and there it was!   
Color - a slight reddish tint helping to define what's going on in  
that particular shadowy area - not present anywhere else in the  
print.  Big Bummer!  Oh, silver what have I done - there ain't no  
sunshine when its gone!  Help!
