As far as the 'dust removal' scanner setting, does it remove anything else from the card itself, other than commas? (e.g-small comma-sized marks or dirt)?
Yes, it won't get rid of blotches or flat stains, but will disappear specks of dirt, print marks. Depending on how the software is reading the item you are scanning, it will disappear some things and leave other things behind.

I usually just use a handled fabric screen cleaner to wipe down my scanner after every few scans or so. Scanners do attract quite a bit of dust pretty quickly for some reason or another (maybe it's just my house and all the animals running around), but it can be easily remedied.
