I just put a patch for the current microtek backend on my website:<br>
<a href="http://www.mir.com/mtek/">http://www.mir.com/mtek/</a><br>
<p>
This should fix support for the Agfa StudioScan II/IIsi, and maybe<br>
improve the function of the ScanMaker 600ZS. It also gives you<br>
bigger gamma tables to work with (if supported).<br>
<p>
If anyone tries it, tell me if what happens. Users who are currently<br>
happy with the backend probably (hopefully) won't notice any difference.<br>

Details:<br>
<p>
As of December 3, 1998 - v0.10.1 (patch) <br>
<p>
o Fixed off-by-1 error in revision-number parsing. <br>
o dump_inquiry() now prints the "Vendor Specific String". <br>
o Added model code/vendor name for the other 600ZS. <br>
o Made get_scan_status() retry delay increase with each try (will<br>
this help the poor 600ZS?). <br>
o Corrected base resolution for Agfa StudioScan II/IIsi (400dpi). <br>
o Disabled backend's clever aspect-ratio correction code for<br>
expanded-mode scans with StudioScan II/IIsi (scanner handles it<br>
internally - smart scanner.) <br>
o Fixed gamma LUT code parsing stupidity: now correctly<br>
determines maximum allowed LUT size, and uses it. (Especially<br>
necessary for StudioScan II/IIsi.) <br>
o The E6 claims to only support 256-byte LUT's, but the backend<br>
now ignores that misinformation (and uses 1024). <br>
o Now ignores denial of expanded-mode by older E6's (model code<br>
0x63), in addition to newer E6's. <br>
