  I am using a HP ScanJet 4p with sane. The images from the scanner have a slight
  blue-green tint. By using a calibration image I found out that the gamma curves
  need to be adjusted; especially the red one must be raised in the mid-tones.

  xscanimage offers a device dialog with the "custom gamma table" selection.
  However, I can only adjust "image intensity", not the separate color channels;
  there are no selections for them. Although the adjustment greatly enhanced the
  quality, the image is still tinted green-blue.

  Are those selections dependend on the scanner backend? (I'm using sane-hp). Does
  the HP backend not allow separate color gamma adjustments?

  Michael
