Exactly the same thing just happened to our SS4000 at work. There is a
sensor which detects whether a film carrier is in the scanner. Dust gets
in the sensor, blocking it, and the scanner is continuously trying to eject
a carrier which isn't there. Contact Polaroid for the brush which fits
the carrier and allows you to clean the sensor. In my case the brush didn't
work and I had to use canned air, but give the brush a try first.
