This has happened before to my unit... first time, not knowing, sent it back to polaroid second time, not wanting to go through the delivery/time cycle, stopped the recycling scanner and blew compressed air into the channel... did it a few times and restarted the scanner, problem solved...

I'm just curious. Could you give us a rough estimate of how many scans you put through your 4000 before this problem started to develop? I'm guessing I've put 400 or 500 slides through mine, so far working flawlessly. Of course I realize that's not very many. Frank Paris [EMAIL PROTECTED]

A couple of thousand I would guess. I have a feeling that dust is more of an issue here than use. I have both the front and back openings covered with plastic wrap but I work in an unfortunately dusty environment. Unfortunately, the brush hasn't done the job in my case so I'm shipping the scanner
