Product: HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I recently bought this printer to replace a dinosaur and love it, except an issue with scanning. 

 

I  scan a document and send it to my self from work with a different machine. Black and white PDF, 17 pages, appears crystal clear. This file is 114KB

 

I open it at home, edit it, print it, sign it, then try to scan it. 

 

I have used all the settings - Color, Greyscale, higher and lower resolution. 

 

All scans end up blueish and looking far worse than the original and file sizes are between 14,000KB and 50,000KB, which are harder to send. 

 

How can I scan a clean black and white copy at a manageable file size? 

 

Endless searching on HP's website and though my product's software has not yielded one possibility. 

 

The machine is brand new - the glass is clean.

 

Thanks!
