Call the 800 technical support number and request the brush for the SS4000.
There is a sensor internal to the scanner that can collect dust preventing
the scanner from finding it's home position. This brush attached to the
front of the carrier. After powering down the scanner you manually

Still, all this is academic and makes assumptions about the 'purity' of
