Subj : Scanner problem: gray background

Hi all,

I still have an HP 2620 All in One printer that I use mainly for its scanner
under GNU/Linux. Recently, the scans started to have a heavy grey background
which consumes a lot of ink when printing.

I was able to resolve this issue by increasing the brightness in Simple
Scan's preferences, but another Smart Tank All in One printer didn't need
such an adjustment.

So I'm wondering what may have caused this. Have you experienced something
similar? Could it be that the lamp is starting to die? If so, would changing
it be a good idea?

Thanks in advance.
