Andreas, I am not going to wait that long for "rapid" share. It has been a minute and counting, still no image. However, the answer to your problem may be scanning with a BLACK background behind that page. This negates the black/white differences. Because 99% of our scanning involves this problem, we have taped black paper over the lid of the scanner (which is typically white) and the problem is solved.
