Hi sane developer's<br>
Recently I installed sane-0.62 for my mustek MFS-12000SP v1.02 scanner<br>
on a linux 2.0.29 box . <br>
<p>
The good news about the driver is: It works. The bad <a href="news:">news:</a> It does not<br>
work very well.<br>
<p>
When I call scanimage without any parameters I get a simple preview<br>
image in greyscale at 18dpi as mentioned in the documentation. Playing<br>
around with the -x and -y options for limiting the scanned region does<br>
not have any effect at all. When I increase the --resolution option to a<br>
value of more than 50 (dpi) (I dont't know the exact figure now) the<br>
scanner reaches its maximum scan height, so I have to do an emergency<br>
shutdown. The resulting image is truncated but still usable despite from<br>
the fact that it is distorted in y direction i.e. the width appears to<br>
be correct but the height is too small. This behaviour gets even worse<br>
by further increasing the resolution. Interestingly the physical height<br>
of the scanner is not reached if I enable --mode color but still -x and<br>
-y options do not show any effect at all.<br>
<p>
Is there hope of an update in the not too distant future?<br>
<p>
Since I'm not subscribed to this mailing list I would greatly appreciate<br>
