The usual thing to do is to up the contrast and brightness 
simultaneously. This will eliminate the more grayish parts of the 
scan, but that can also mean losing important detail (e.g., anti-
aliased text is smoothly shaped because it uses gray-scales for 
rounding off what would otherwise be sharp edges).

You'd have to experiment, but likely you can get rid of a large 
percentage of the marks with contrast/brightness adjustments and then 
clean out the rest manually as has already been suggested.
