I am also interested in hearing some suggestions.

I own an HP Photosmart C4780, which Prints-scans-copies. When I scan, my cards come out gray looking, which is of course most noticeable on the borders.

I recently updated my computer to Windows 10 and I received a few new settings. Resolution (DPI), Brightness and Contrast. I have played with a few settings but I have no clue what I am doing nor do the pics look that much different to me?

The color options are color, gray scale and B&W. I haven't tried gray scale but I assume that would make my cards looks worse?

In my pics, (First group) you can see (hopefully?) the borders look a lot more real, or with white borders, which they look like in hand but with my scans, (second pics) the borders, and I assume the rest of card, although it is harder to tell with the colors, are more gray. (Pics are multiples, scans are single pics)

Leon, is it OK to play with pics/scans and settings in your "Test section"?
