This is normal when halftoning is
selected. Halftoning simulates subtle
differences of tones and luminosity of the
original image with a number of bi-level
dots. When the image is viewed from a

similar color to your original.

scanner software, switch to monochrome
and specify a dropout color. Then try
different dropout colors until the image

cannot show the image as it is on the
screen, but can print properly on the
printer. (See your software manual.)
