Was this done on a flatbed? If so, just try to scan the neg from the other side and reverse it with software afterwards. This has solved the Newton-things for me.

My HP All-in-one printer/scanner is a bit worse than this. I get color variations too, not just stripes. I'm about to kick mine to the curb. Yours is not so bad Cheers! By the way I second the comment about the expression.
Slixtiesix- it's a print scan, the Newton rings appeared when I put the negative into the enlarger so they're already on the print. I need to solve this problem.
