You will have to either decrease the JPEG compression factor until the scan
is acceptable to you or scan in raw (compression=None). You can set these
options in xsane under Window | Advanced Options. Also, scanning at a higher
DPI would probably help somewhat (200dpi is pretty low).

Hi..

I've noticed that if I scan some text at 200dpi in full colour mode, and
then zoom in 400%, I can see JPEG compression artifacts around the
letters.

How can I turn this off?  I'm trying to scan an agarose gel for my
biology class, and these artifacts are messing up my results.

I have an HP psc 2175 all-in-one machine, with Fedora 6 and
hplip-1.6.12-1.fc6.

Thanks!
