Use Photoshop to remove scanned lines from photo
I found the Photoshop Clone Stamp tool and Healing Brush tool can be used to remove the horizontal lines for the photos mentioned in my previous post. For Clone Stamp tool, I need to set the suitable brush size, brush type and check the Aligned in the options dialog of the Clone Stamp tool. The technique is also applicable to remove my purple line from my scanned negative.
do you mean scratches?

Yes, it is scratch which is a thin horizontal line across the photo taken by film camera. I got it because I had not checked the film compartment of my old camera carefully for any small particle or metal paint wear. I also experienced it on the photo I scanned from the negative using my flat bed scanner. It is due to some dust on the scanner CCD or calibration area or even some dead pixel on the CCD.

Oh, i see. Is there any dust and scratch software come with your scanner? In the past, I used this kind of software from my Minolta film scanner and it was very effective on those defects
