I'm scanning a bunch of pages, and I noticed that the text in the reverse of the page gets in the photo made of the front page. It occurred to me to cover the white plastic lid of my scanner with a black spongy layer, and it works wonders. The scanned page doesn't get material from the back, or very little, depending on paper thickness.
My old Epson Perfection 4870 Photo has a detachable plate in the lid which is white on one side and black on the other, but I'm sure this is accidental and was not intended as a helpful design feature. Roger
