Default Scanning newsprint - tips?

How about taking a photo of it and then printing that


If your photo has enough resolution to see the "screen" you will get the
Moire patterns. If it doesn't, you've applied Martin's Gaussian blur.
And unless you flatten the paper with a sheet of glass, you will
introduce distortion, probably poor lighting, and perhaps depth of field
issues. You might as well use a scanner.
