My scanner is the only one I have access to.

Can you scan the same slides on another scanner (not necessarily another SS4000 although that would be good) to see if it's an anomaly with your scanner?

Some of my recent scans done on an SS4000 are showing an odd spike in the histograms. I first noticed this when I was doing Levels correction in Photoshop. I checked the histograms in both Polacolor Insight and VueScan as I did more scans and noticed the same thing. Here is an example of what I mean: http://www.tallgrassimages.com/test/histogram.jpg These single level pixel spikes seem to be in the blue channel. I can't see any streaking or lines or other anomalies on the scanned images themselves. Sometimes there will be a very high pixel count in the spike as reported by Photoshop. Sometimes the spike is visible but Photoshop doesn't register a high pixel count at that particular level. These spikes seem to occur most commonly at level 0 or level 1. They are not the same from slide to slide and some slide scans don't produce such a spike. Any ideas?
