Damn man that's intense. It would be bummer if their was hair or something that messed the scan up after having books on there for a week.

A hair is easy to fix, it's the reflections on the spine that is the issue. Plus the Gray color creates a lot of moire.

THIS

I scanned one XB1 cover and it turned out ... less than desirable. That gray color screws everything up

^^ i guess it does explain why some covers on ps2 platinum won't scan properly, even a single cube playchoice game does the same.
...
bioshock 2 360 metallic finish.
extermination ps2, the same.
really fuxxorz the scan feedback, i reckon it could damage the scanner array if attempted on the same rig too often, on cheap home scanners.
my HP deskjet really needs to go, just where do i get a cool ten K gbp at least for a something that demands professional treatment?  :'(
thanks for the heads-up, better to know, than to not.  :'(

Ummm, did I not say in that post that I got it from covergalaxy? I'm sorry I didn't go and check who uploaded it to another site that I visit only when I can't find what I'm looking for here.

To clean up flat color text on flat color BG I use gradient maps.

I ether try to get it Black and white and then sample both colors and use a gradient map to get it nice and clean.

Before doing that, use Noise>Despekal and a Surface or Smart Blur

A quick example, not the cleanest. I'm not home:
