Hi,<br>

Ok. Provided that the X6 uses the SCSI-2 command set, the microtek(2)<br>
backend should support this model. Version 0.3 of the backend that will<br>
be distributed with the next release of sane has some preliminary support<br>
for scanners with more than 8 bit per color output data (like the X6).<br>
<p>
However, this functionality is *completely* untested, so I suppose that<br>
it won't work at the first go. To my knowledge this is the first time<br>
that someone wants to to use this model with sane.<br>
<p>
To sum up: It is intended to support such scanners, but I doubt that<br>
it works at present without flaws. If someone has already an X6 and<br>
tries to use it with sane: I am interested in any trace/debug information.<br>
