Some parallel port scanners do that after loading new printer drivers. Some scanners get old and you try another scanner and that fixes it.

Hi, I have some question regarding to scanning an image. I just scanned a graphic image but the image appeared on the screen has some kind of thick yellow lines in the background. How could I eliminate those ugly lines? Thank you
