Documents scanned as 256 grey scale/TIFF show up as black pages.

I am trying to scan several documents through our Canon DR9080 scanner. They include test and images and we are trying to use 256 grey scale as a TIFF image. When scanned using a TIFF compression the pages appear completly black when view in any program other than Capture Perfect 3.0. When I remove the compression (which makes the file way too big), the scanned pages appear fine. Please help

Grey as you know is different shades of black. Uncompressed TIF can store this information. Compressed TIFF is not designed for this. Compressed TIFF is for blck & white only. Try JPG option. JPG can compress Color & Grey. For pure black & white chose TIFF compression.
