I  just bought this printer a week ago.  From day one, when I try to scan to email, the background is totally grey.  When I scan to my computer, the scan is fine (white background).  I've checked for updates and the firmware is updated.

Hi,

Please set up Digital Filing as described below:

You should not see any similar behavior once setting Digital Filing to scan using the Scan > Email option on your printer screen.
