Image Colors are Patchy at the Edges If you are scanning a thick or warped original, cover its edges with paper to block external light as you scan it. Parent topic: Solving Scanned Image Quality Problems Ripple Patterns Appear in an Image You may see a ripple pattern (called a moiré) in scanned images of printed documents. This is caused by interference from differing pitches in the scanner's screen and your original's halftone screen. To reduce this effect, adjust these Epson Scan 2 settings (if available) and try scanning again: • Select the Descreening setting. • Select a lower Resolution setting.

If necessary, move your original away from the edges of the scanner glass slightly. In the Epson Scan 2 or Epson ScanSmart settings, set the Edge Fill setting to None. When scanning using Epson ScanSmart and placing multiple originals on the scanner glass, make sure there is a gap of at least 0.8 in. (20 mm) between the originals.
