Creating a PDF

Recently my scans are not coming out clear. I can barely read them. What do I do. I do not know how to work the settings.

I have acrobat standard 8.

I tried the doc feeder and the bed.

Help. Making me lose time while working.

Also, we are having trouble with scans being too light to print.

Some things to have checked.
-| does the scanner need maintenance? (platen, lamp, etc.)
-| what scan resolution is being used? It may be too low.
-| Are the scans set to color, grey-scale, or black/white?
-| Does the printer (used to print the PDFs containing the scanned images)
need replacement of toner? ink?
-| copy an "original" - bump up density and contrast some.
Scan this copy for comparison.
-| try a different scanner, if possible.
