If your scans are suddenly coming out black (or all white if you are
scanning negatives), then the light tube may be defective or misaligned.
Follow procedure below to replace a tube:
1. Get the appropriate replacement light tube (ask your Flextight dealer
or see specification in “Technical Specifications” on page 20).
2. Turn off and unplug the scanner from the primary power supply.
3. IMPORTANT: Let the light tube cool down for app. 10 minutes
before proceeding.
4. Lay the scanner down on its back, with the bottom facing you.
