Whilst looking through the service manual for the Canon MS-800 I noticed that it listed a 128Mb SODIM as being optional and necessary for the greyscale option?
?
My machine did not have this fitted so I popped a PC66 stick in and hey presto the software at the PC end of the system now reports that 16 / 256 level grayscale is now available as a scan parameter (previously only black and white).? It also appears to have opened up a contrast option on the PC end.
?
Great that all the software appears to be resident on the hardware by default.?
?
I wonder how much they charged for the grayscale option back in the day?
