correctly set up. (See your printer manual for instructions.)

Problem Solution
Your scan is being
distorted by an effect
known as Newton’s
Ring.
Try scanning the film upside down. Newton’s Ring is an optical
phenomenon that occurs when two very thin membranes such as
film surfaces or soap bubble surfaces meet.
Problem Solution
The narrow window
near the ADF’s
mounting bracket is
dirty.
Clean the window with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
