How thick is the stripe? I was getting a couple of faint, opaque stripes on my scanned images. Turned out to be dust on the bulb. I took off the glass and blew gently on the scanner bulb. Cleared it right up.

Sorry. I re-read your post and you already said the stripe is 1 inch wide. That's either one giant piece of dust, or glc is right and it's a software problem. Does it show up when you use the software to preview the image?
