Yes, you are right, I am talking B&W. I really should have said that, but
we were talking about converting RGB scans to B&W, so I assumed the source

Huh? How do they get even illumination, muchless correct wavelength light,
from LEDs as the light source? That wouldn't be my first choice I don't
believe, for a light source, or for filtering the light!
