hi,
(hope this question is ok for this ng)
i have 2 old ( 5 y/o) scanners (umax and ibm (parallel)) which have not
been used for several years.
they both scan well HOWEVER in both cases, the results have a yellow
tint (as though there was a yellow filter)
(they are on different pcs)
does anyone know how to *fix* this? (even a cleaning solution?)
(they are WAY out of warranty)
thank you


Does the light from the fluorescent lamps in the scanners look bright pure
white?

Could be a software/driver setting issue too, or it's possible I suppose
that the scanner is somehow not scanning blue but it's odd that two scanners
would do it.
