A year ago - before the brush was invented....
I had the same problem. I took the scanner to Polaroid UK who were really
helpful because they know I am a professional photographer. They took the
lid off and cleaned various bits, doing what we now know the brush does.
Didn't work. We gave up after an hour and sent the unit to the service
people who replace a circuit board.
So, although the brush does work - I have seen it fix "my" problem on a
friends machine, you may have more serious trouble.
Good luck opening the box but I think you may be sending it to Polaroid.
