Thanks. What about sizing in the Pro mode? I had tried using the Pro mode before like you show, but fell back to using the Office mode since on that one it was easy to create a sizing profile for slabs of differing dimensions--but I gave on Pro when I couldn't get it to give me that control...

My setup looks very similar on the Epson V600, and I love the scan quality.
Only differences are:
--I scan at 300 dpi rather than 400, as the size of .TIF files is more manageable that way.
--I do use the Descreening tool at 175 lpi as well, in addition to the Unsharp Mask.

I use Pro Mode as well, with a cracked SGC half slab placed horizontally across the lower lip of the scanner bed, and then the slab I'm scanning placed vertically flush up against that slab. Gives a nice even placement every time that way.
Then I use the Autolocator tool after Preview scan to approximate card and manually adjust borders to fit the slab, prior to the final Scan.
Scanning several cards at the same time is more efficient, to cut down on resizing all the time.
I always scan in a fully blacked-out room, with lid open for best results

I love this scanner, and can't imagine not having my entire collection to view this way.
