This sort of correction has to be done very carefully when one uses a ccd
camera for Astronomical purposes. It's called a "flat-field" calibration and
was often done by taking pictures of the inside of the closed telescope dome.
In fact sometimes it was hard to see things until this correction was done.
I'm not surprised that a way of doing this has been provided in a scanner that
uses a ccd detector.
