I'm trying to find a replacement bulb for an IBM 0275-001 flatbed scanner,
and have had zip luck locating one either on the Web or over the phone.
On-line searches have turned up mostly places which specialize in home
lighting.
I called IBM's parts and service center and they don't even have a part
number -- their policy is to replace the whole scanner if it's under
warranty, which of course it isn't.
This scanner has certain features which I haven't been able to find in
any other scanner, and I'd really like to replace the lamp and keep
using it.
Anybody have any idea where one goes to get a replacement scanner lamp?
