I have browsed your article about polaroid 4000 does not initialize
anymore. My scanner has the same problem. The problem is the noisy sound
when i turn scanner on. Obviously, it comes from rail. But the rail gear
wheel keep running to reject film holder even no film carrier inside. And
the computer can not recognise scanner. Is that possible problem about
dust or dirty inside? Which part if so? Or any recommendation to fix it up?
The noisy sound when you turn the scanner on is normal. It goes through a
self-test while the yellow light is blinking. What is not normal is when that
blinking light stays blinking and doesn't become a steady light.
You did see Tonys instructions on how to take your scanner apart and clean it,
didn't you? It is very thorough.
I have to admit, that I haven't gotten my nerve up to actually *do* it, despite
the fact that the scanner sits there useless right now. One of these years I'll
gather the nerve.
Regards, Barbara
