Hi, I have a Minolta Scan Elite (that's' the original Elite, not the new Elite II) which I have had for nearly a year. It gets light use, probably averaging no more than a couple of hours per week.
Currently it takes nearly 4 minutes between switching it on and it having finished it's calibration and being ready to scan, I'm sure that when it was new it took less a minute, i.e. it was ready to go before my PC had finished booting up. Is this normal behaviour for an Elite? How long do other people's take to 'warm up'? Should I be worried that it is about to fail (perhaps the lamp is dying)? If so I want to get it sorted before the warrantee expires.
