Colored "Flecks" in my scan

[sharpdes]

I'm using SF SE on my G5/OS 10.3 with Photoshop CS. When I scan and image (whether it's printed, a photo print, fabric, original water color - whatever) I get these brightly colored flecks in my image - sometimes worse than other times depending on the image; sometimes dark, sometimes light. The flat bed scanner (UMAX Powerlook II) is clean and I didn't have this problem on my G4 with MagicScan. Anyone have an idea of the cause.

Many thanks,
sharpdes

sharpdes,

If the flecks are the same regardless of what you scan the problem may be a dirty scanner.
