<EM>&gt; &gt; Hi,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; sorry for the late response.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; It's understandable with the holidays and all. :)
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; &gt; Thanks to all the developers of SANE, onSCSI and Matto Marjanovic for
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; &gt; helping me to get this working. :) The colors aren't as correct as the
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; &gt; windows drivers, but its so subtle you'd never notice.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; Then you are lucky. What is needed is a shading correction. I have some
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; information how to do this shading correction for the Phantom 336cx, but
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; I assume it is the same for the SlimScan C3. However, this will need some
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; modifications, and don't have such a model, so I won't be able to test
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; it. Unfortunately, the algorithm to correct the colours is somewhat different
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; for other Phantom/Slimscan models like the C6/Phantom 636cx.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; In my excitement I seem to have posted prematurely, the scanner does work
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; flawlessly, color is fine for the depths I'm able to scan in, however, on
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; closer inspection with a few more &quot;test&quot; scans, it seems I'm only able to
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; select 8 bit color in xscanimage, even though my scanner does support 36
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; bit, I was using xsane and therefore had no bit depth color option and
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; assumed it was 36 bit. This would obviously account for the lackluster
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; color. Do you have any idea why this might be happening?
</EM><BR>
<P>This seems ok to me. According to Microtek's web site this model works
<BR>
with 12 bit per color *internally*, but the output is only 8 bits per
<BR>
color. As such there is only one depth for color and grayscale mode and
<BR>
an option to select the color depth is not available.
