However, I have downloaded and installed Vuescan and still obtain pristinely blank scans. It looks like I trot along to a repairer with the 1670 under my arm.

I will let you all know the result.

Interesting :

I don't know how these work or what the connections are on the USB cable ,

but if you see the light in the scanner , and it moves from end to end ,
that leaves you with little else than the cable  ... I would think .

Have you swapped the usb cable ?

and can you try this scanner on another Mac ? any scanner that vuescan supports
so that you don't need to worry about drivers for the trial .

and if that also fails , can you borrow a scanner and try it on your Mac
... if that works I suggest a new scanner is the answer
