There is a simple trick to do this: <br>
<p>
1) Whenever you have some settings you want to keep, do "Preferences-&gt;Save<br>
device settings" in xscanimage. The settings get saved in the directory<br>
"$HOME/.sane/xscanimage" in a file called something like "umax.rc" (exact<br>
name depending on your scanner model).<br>
<p>
2) Make a copy of this file as e.g. "umax-3x5"<br>
<p>
3) Change the settings in xscanimage, save them again, make a copy of the<br>
"umax.rc" file with a different name, etc until you have an assortment of<br>
files with all the settings you usually need.<br>
<p>
4) Whenever you need a particular set of settings, copy or link the<br>
appropriate file back as "umax.rc" and then do "Preferences-&gt;Restore<br>
device settings" in xscanimage.<br>
<p>
