True... that _is_ a possibility. In fact, I couldn't bring myself to buy a Winblows machine, so I am living with the problem for now. I actually have been looking at the code trying to understand what could be causing the color bands without much success so far. Of course, this is new code to me so I'm having to learn it as I go, which makes things lots slower. If I find anything interesting, I'll let you know. I might have questions about the code later. Thanks for all your help with all of these scanner issues. Most people (including me) only write to complain, but we know that it takes a lot of work to keep these things working. ken
