Nice analyses on the image quality. :) 

Our hpaio sane backend performs no up-stream image enhancements, so what
you see is uncompressed RGB or jpeg directly from the scanner. 

The windows scanning solution does performs up-stream image enhancements
which may or may not be desirable.

In order to provide a simple open source scanning solution that can be
generalized for many HP devices, we prefer to leave image enhancements
to other open source tools like Gimp.
