Hi All...

I've been using SANE with some success on Linux-2.2.x with a Mustek MFS
6000CX and a AHA-1542C. I've got xscanimage working, but it will not scan at
resolutions higher than 300dpi. When I try to set it to 600dpi (the max
allowable in xscanimage) it scans at what appears to be the default
resolution of somewhat less than 300dpi. When using the Mustek drivers under
Windows the scanner seems to have an optical resolution of 1200dpi and an
interpolated resolution of up to 4800dpi.

I thought perhaps I could get around this by using scanimage, but I cannot
find any documentation on how to specify resolution or the area to scan.
I've looked at the man pages for sane-mustek, scanimage, sane-scsi, etc,
etc, but strangely there's absolutely no mention of this.

Can anyone tell me how to get this scanner to work at >300dpi and how to
tell scanimage what to scan?

Thanks,

Sean
