Hi,
my scanjet 5200 is now taking considerably longer to warm up than it did
months ago.
Do you know if this can be caused by some "part" wearing out?

The problems occurs regardless of the pc from where i'm trying to scan.

Any info will be appreciated.
Thanks
Flavio

Very likely some 'part' is wearing out.
Could be the lamp is getting weak and shifting color.

May be cheaper to just replace the scanner.
 
Thank you,
is there actually any chance to get a lamp replacement at a reasonable
price?

Or sending the scanner back to HP for assistance is the only way to do it?

Bye,
Flavio
