Dots? Please elaborate (I'm assuming you already have the image scanned and you just want to know how to touch it up?)

What you are seeing is a Moiré pattern.

If your scanner does not have Descreen:

1. Scan at a high resolution (DPI).
2. Use PS to blur the scan just enough to get rid of the moiré pattern.
3. Resample or resize the scan to the size you want.
4 Refocus the scan by using UnSharp Mask.
