Howdy-- There must be an awful lot of dust inside your refurbished scanner if it gets on the film when you scan!
I'd recommend against just randomly spraying compressed air into the scanner, but it should be fairly easy to remove the outer casing of the scanner, and that should be enough to access the areas that are close enough to the film plane that dust can get onto your film. Then I expect you could use compressed air to blow dust off the dusty parts, while keeping it from blowing down towards the CCD, etc. --Bill At 1:39 AM +0000 4/15/04, Unspecified wrote: I got a refurbished LS4000 via Nikon USA after my initial one died at 13 months. The refurbished model been under a dust cover since I got it. The scanning operations seem fine on this one, but it coats every negative with EXTENSIVE dust. -- ====================================================================== Bill Fernandez * User Interface Architect * Bill Fernandez Design (505) 346-3080 * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * http://billfernandez.com ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe by mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED], with 'unsubscribe filmscanners' or 'unsubscribe filmscanners_digest' (as appropriate) in the message title or body
