Carol,
If it is a full colour print job (4 colour) then
you may have to rotate the image around a bit on
the bed of your scanner to reduce moire patterns.

They occur because the image is made of screened
dots already and you are scanning it into another
dot pattern. Many image editors/scanning apps have
a moire reduction filter as part of the program.

I guess copyright could also be an issue.

Peter.
