No, from what I understand ghosting is inherent to e-ink, although one can 'condition' the display signal to minimize it, at the expense of other things. I suppose iRex has decided to pick the current set of refresh speeds, contrast and ghosting levels, especially because ghosting does not surface while reading plain text.
What you have done by inserting white pages (and what could
theoretically be enabled automatically as a high-level software option or as low-level instructions to the delta controller), reduces ghosting but increases refresh time, something you are willing to live with in this situation
So no, there is no "correction" to this "problem" with what we have right now, but there are other things one can do to minimize it.
It would be really cool if there were low-level instructions to the controller one could use to change the tradeoff though, such as a slow refresh-low ghosting mode for comics and a fast refresh mode for text.
