how to make adobe scan consistantly remove background when scanning books

I have been trying to scan 8 pages from a book with adobe scan for almost an hour now. Every time it choses to leave two or more different pages in color and with dominant background. With the other pages the background gets removed and it is turned black and white. How can i get an consistant result?
Can I force it to always remove the background? I tryed many different lighting conditions, but none gives the desired results.

Can I force it to only scan in black and white?
thanks for your help!

    Hi @Jonas17116001a9cq,

     

    Hope you are doing well. Sorry for your experience with Adobe Scan.

     

    From the attachments, what I would suggest here is:

    Once you are done with scanning the pages, click on the Filters tab-> select the desired filter-> click the toggle button "Apply to all pages."

    This should then make all the pages consistent without any alterations in the filter.

     

    Hope this helps.

    Note: Enable the toggle button of "Apply to all pages" only after you are done with making the changes.

      Thank you! Yes thats the button I was looking for. With the greyscale filter it works much better.
