How Do You Fix Scanner Dust On A Glossy Photo?
When scanning a photograph into your computer you need to make sure no dust is on the glass of the scanner. This is especially important when scanning glossy photos. Glossy photos attract dust, so when you scan the image you can see dust spots appear in the image. In order to fix any dust spots and protect your pictures you should clean the glass on the scanner. Step 1 Open up the lid to the scanner. Spray a couple of squirts of glass cleaner onto the glass of the scanner. Step 2 Clean the glass with a paper towel. Rub over the glass in straight lines with the paper towel to avoid swirls. Swipe the edges of the scanner glass also because dust can become trapped there. Step 3 Allow the glass time to dry. The cleaner can actually end up damaging your glossy photos. Step 4 Position the glossy photo into the corner of the scanner and close the lid. You are now ready to import the image without any dust spots.
