Subject: [Leica] Nikon Coolscan 4000 Users.... I need help!

I received my ( used) Coolscan 4000, and it works, somewhat.....

I am getting scans that are soft, and seemingly of low saturation.

Using films strips and the 6 neg direct input module.  Nikon Scan 4.02
Software.  ( not 3.0 that came with the scanner originally).

Film is either B+W or Velvia, in strips.  ( I finally got it to reverse the
negative films image to a positive... that on its own was a big deal.)

How do you set this thing up to get good scans?
