Well guess what happened to me this morning.  I have a SprintScan 45
Ultra.  Turn it on today and set up to do a scan and get the code 6006.
Lamp failure.  Poloard tells me about 2 weeks repair time.  Since I make
a good part of my living off of this scanner, my income has just gone
down.  It's being shipped on monday.

I'll see what I can do to get a fast turnaround. They will return it by same
method you ship.  overnite to Polaroid = overnite back to you etc.

Don't know if it will happen to you but Polaroid quoted 10 days when I sent my
4000 in and they seem to have shipped back express mail the day they received it.

You might try the BULBMAN @ 1-800-648-1163..I've had excellent luck with
them in the past on other types of bulb replacements..

 bulb/tube.

I would be curious what the replacement cost is, if you would be so kind to
post it...
