Scanning question v330 users

I've been scanning some cards and notice that, especially for a bigger card like a 56, that the inner rail that sits against the edge of the card makes a shadow on the card edge. It's usually the edge closest to the lamp as starts scanning.
Aside from trying to move card around which makes me nervous, does anyone have a setting they use to alleviate this? See edge closest to flip.

<< <i>As far as I know none of the Epson scanners scan to the edge of the frame. I just put a plastic 12 inch ruler against the long edge (fits perfectly), and use that as my new edge. >>
The OP means the shadow from part of the slab affecting ability to view the card's edge.
OP, try scanning the card at a 45 degree angle on the scanner, then rotate the image. Or, as JoeBanzai said, rotate the card 180 from whichever cardedge is close to scan edge.

I guess orienting it to the side that the edge is not covered by rail is best option.
And cheapest.
