filmscanners: Is my Polaroid SprintScan 4000 faulty?

A plea for help...

I have encountered a strange problem with my new
Polaroid SprintScan 4000 35mm film scanner which
I am inclined to attribute to faulty hardware.

As there many subscribers to this list who own
the SprintScan 4000 and use it to great effect,
I wonder if you would mind taking a look at the
images I've posted on this web page...

and then letting me know whether your conclusion
is the same as mine. Of course, if you know how
to solve the problem, that's even better! :-)

thanks and regards,
