prnter scans way too lite.how can i replace bulb in scanner??

Hi im not sure if you can do it from the printer end but I know you can do it from a photo editor ,either its but in to the OS or a 3rd party app it should do what you are after:-) hopefully this helps Thanks:-)

Most “AIO” scanners are subar, so not much can usually be done. For scans you need good quality on, you really need to use a standalone scanner - even a cheap one like the Epson Perfection V39* is a million times better as it’s designed to be good at one thing (and Epson is known for their excellent scanners), not 3 or 4 functions with a subpar scan head. This is why my scanner, mono laser and color laser are all split even if it costs more upfront to split it all (for laser, single function devices are still common and tend to be cheaper upfront vs inkjets.) For that reason, I split the printer and scanner up unless I got an excellent deal on the AIO version. *The V19 is the V39 with fewer features. Don’t bother, even if you find it on closeout. Epson discontinued it for a reason.

Hi sjones7407, When you have scanned the “image”, you should see a paint palette with a brush (Enhance / Correct).Note: It’s assumed that you’re using Canons software.Click that and head to the Manual tab. There you can adjust a lot of settings, amongst others Brightness, Contrast, etc. That should give you some better results, but it’s basically post processing.
