That 2010 Bowman Chrome Bryce Harper I posted above is a highly reflective surface, about as close as I come to what it sounds like you're describing.  The darker Chrome cards often have blacked out areas when scanned. This 2011 Bowman Chrome Mike Trout is an example:  I have Photoshop, and when I have blackened areas, it's just a matter of adjusting the levels somewhat.

Any Chrome set is a good example. They don't scan well, but the refractors look great.
Similar to what you posted, here is a foil-based card:  The only thing that really shows up is the non-foil part. Here is the same card photographed with my phone:  Here is a refractor-type card from a different insert set:  Shows up brilliantly.

Chrome cards are just a hassle sometimes, and I don't know of any way to improve those dark areas without a photo editing program like Photoshop. Maybe duplicate the picture, add a layer mask to the lighter areas, and then play with the levels for the darker areas.

I went and got a 9000F this weekend. My All-in-One was starting to show some streaks and the images have always been a little fuzzy. I'm really impressed with the results. It's going to make my online albums more enjoyable to manage.
