<P>
After reading all docs for sane 1.0.1 and sane-microtek2 backend, I
<BR>
realize that they should support scanning in lineart and halftone with
<BR>
my scanner (Microtek Scanmaker X6).
<BR>
<P>The scanner is correctly recognized, and sane uses just the right
<BR>
backend for it:
<BR>
<P>,----
<BR>
| $ scanimage -L
<BR>
| device `microtek2:/dev/sg2' is a Microtek ScanMaker X6 / Phantom 636
<BR>
| flatbed scanner
<BR>
`----
<BR>
Which is exactly what it is. However:
<BR>
,----
<BR>
| Modes: Lineart: No
<BR>
| Halftone: No
<BR>
| Gray: Yes
<BR>
| Color: Yes
<BR>
`----
<BR>
<P>From sane-microtek2 man page:
<BR>
,----
<BR>
| At present, the following scanners are known positively to
<BR>
| work with this backend:
<BR>
| Vendor Product id: Remark:
<BR>
| -------- -------------- -----------
<BR>
| Microtek X6 all modes ok
<BR>
| [...]
<BR>
| The following options are supported by the
<BR>
| Microtek2-driver:
<BR>
|
<BR>
| Color, grayscale, halftone and lineart scans.
<BR>
`----
<BR>
<P>Sane was installed from sources. Running Linux 2.2.14, glibc2.1.
<BR>
<P>Does this look like a bug in the sane-microtek2 backend? If so, where
<BR>
do I submit it? The man page lists Bernd Schroeder as the author of
<BR>
the backend, but gives no contact info.
<BR>
