Re: filmscanners: Scan Dual II problem
This could either be a failed CCD sensor, or, more likely some dust that
has fallen over the CCD. Try placing the scanner on its side and gently
tap it on all sides. Then try scanning something with it still on it's
side. That might fix it. If not, some careful use of compressed air in
the right location might do it, but you might need some instruction from
Minolta on how to direct it.
Obviously, if it is under warranty, and the CCD has failed they should
replace your unit.
