images

On the subject of images, slides, scanning etc. I've run into a probelm that 
I wonder if any of you who regularly scan slides have encountered.

I'm new at scanning--none of my newspapers could access them until late last 
year and I got my scanner a little over six months ago. Surprisingly enough 
it went relatively easily until I tried to scan in some travel images 
recently, and they came out very dark, although the slides themselves looked 
ok and projected well. I contacted HP--my scanner is  an HP 4470c, they sent 
me an update software and had a few other suggestions, none of which helped. 
It appears that only a few slides from a couple of rolls have the problem. 
I've been using several films--Kodachrome 64, Fuji Velvia and others, and 
have isolated the problem to Fuji Velvia.

Has anyone else run into a problem with certain slide films reacting 
differently when scanned?

Any help or suggestions will be appreciated.
