I've finally got around to digitising the hundreds of family photos some going back to the 19th century. I thought using the scanner in my Canon TS8050 printer would be perfect as the print quality is superb and the Canon software included outputs multi-images from a single scan. Unfortunately, no matter what setting I've tried, the results are awful!
This one was scanned using settings: Colour/600dpi/jpeg/high quality (other settings make no difference)

This was a simple photo taken with an iPad:

The difference is clear.
So, should my printer be capable of scanning better than it is?
If not I'll have to photograph each image or groups of images if software is available to separate groups into individual images.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Cheers,
John
