This is an ongoing problem experienced after the scanner has been used quite a it. When scanning documents through the top loader the image gets streched at the top and distorts the image. I have not been able to find what the cause of the problem is other than age.
There are two things to check one clean the read sensors there are 3 or 4 if it was Minolta i would tell you exculley where to clean 2 check the front ant the back of the scanner make sure it rests on scan glass evently .

Possible wear and tear. The image path movement must match the scan head one has to be 'stationery' in relation to the other- It seems that one element is slowing down. Is there a rate of travel adjustment to be made - check your manual
