lol!

Scan it at the highest resolution and at 100%. If that doesn't help, maybe it needs to be re-installed!?!

Try moving the item to be scanned so that 1/4' of glass is showing on the end the scan head starts from.

have you checked your color settings for your scan? And is this a preview scan or actual scan?
