It does shut off? How long does this take? I've left the scanner alone<br>
at night and the next morning the lamp is still on. Maybe it's getting<br>
some stray SCSI commands across the bus and those are keeping the lamp on?<br>

<i>&gt;Maybe I'll check the UMAX web site....</i><br>
<p>
It seems to be somewhat dead at the moment, at least from here. <br>
It's a little disturbing when a mailing list provides useful information<br>
faster than a vendor's web site. :-/<br>

<p>
25K hours is ~3 years. Not quite solid-state, but close enough I guess...<br>
