Greyscale Scans Don't Adjust In Photoshop

I am freelancing at an agency who just installed the ricoh Aticio MP-5001. When we scan pencil drawings into the machine, and have them sent to our email adress,teh resulting images do not adjust in the "Adjustment>Levels" in Photoshop. This consequently has seriously hampered our ability to deliver our work on time. Please help. We have tried various ways of "Save AS" and saving as differetn file types, to no avail.

You could try increasing the resolution when you scan, maybe that would help.  On the Scan screen on the copier, select Scan Settings and choose a higher resolution.  Hope that helps!
