How can I remove moire patterns from a cover with GIMP?
Arseen:
The moire effect is bad. :-\
What scanner program you are using?
Could you take print-screens of you scanner options so we could try to find the option to remove the moire before scanning? :)
arny91:
The scanning software is XSANE.
it hasn't any descreen option except for the median filter. But isn't the descreen/derasterization option of the other scanning software a median filter, in fact?

P.S: Neither the original hp precisionscan ltx, which couldn't be used anymore on windows 7 had descreen.
Arseen:
Did some research and didn't find any leads to solving the problem.
Only what we can try is take a scan with full median filter on, and see if that removes the moire.
