Solution
Getting poor scan quality such as greenish / bluish or other color tinted scans?
Try Calibrating the Scanner and / or Resetting the Color Settings.
How to Calibrate the Scanner and / or Reset Color Settings.
Important: Not all scanners have an option to calibrate from within the driver. Some models will automatically calibrate. If you are experiencing a poor scan quality issue such as greenish / bluish or other color tint to scanned images, first try resetting driver settings to their default (especially Tone / Color settings).
