Yes, for some reason the lines even on a good white rendering come out gray rather than black. As to re- scanning them, with Emhart it is what it is. I would be happy if I could just see all of the pages, the fun thing is that the fax viewer on Windows will view them just fine. Indeed at times I have to go move them to a Win XP box to open them as I get tired of fighting with all of the issues on my linux box.
What are you viewing them with? As I said, the light lines, seems to be a part of the way they come out and I know that has been that way ever since I worked with them, but the multi-page, that is my real issue. The only thing that is working at this time is Image Magic, and that is kind of fiddly to get from one page to another.
