in principle scanning of negatives and slides should work on a 1670=20
Photo, at least it works for other snapscan models. Can you be a bit=20
more specific as to how exactly it fails? Are you able to chose=20
"Transparency adapter" as scanning source in xsane? Does the actual=20
scan produce an image?

If Epson changed the protocol for the transparency adapter in the 1670=20
there may be additional work required. Most of all I'd need a usb=20
trace of a transparency scan in windows. Unfortunately I have little=20
time to work on the backend right now, but if you're interested and=20
willing to run some tests we may finally get it to work.
