buffering. Clear inquiry buffer before using. Paragon 1200 SP now
uses LD_BLOCK color correction. Removed LD MFS (wasn't used
anymore). Fix sane_cancel for Paragon series II scanners. Fix
halftone and grain for Paragon series II scanners. Backtracking is

Changed SCSI request scheme. Sane_read can read more than 4096
bytes from pipe. Minimum dpi is 30 now. Fixed LD correction for
Paragon 1200SP 1.06 and 1.11. Read SCSI buffer into big block and
do LD after that for Paragon one-pass scanners. New option
"blocksize" in mustek.conf. Better detection of the scanner type
(three-pass, Paragon I, ...). Fixed possible segmentation faults
in Paragon 600 II N LD code, scsi_sense_wait_ready and
sense_handler. Decreased maximum scan size of Paragon 800 II
SP. For three-pass scanners: fixed stop_scan and speed code, scan
area is in pixels now, added RGB brightness and contrast, use
+-100% for brightness and contrast. Return SANE_STATUS_CANCELLED
when scan was cancelled. Option "force backtracking" is enabled by

* LEVEL2: Add point about image data polarity.
* frontend/scanimage.c: Removed some warnings.
backend/canon_pp-dev.h: Many changes: Bug fixes, less memory leaks (none left now?), more relaible, faster. Biggest changes are speculative reads (ask scanner to read more while data processing
occurs) and more reliable sending of commands. Slight performance
increase over previous version.
* doc/sane-canon_pp.man: Added discussion noting that scanning
greyscale in green is bad for colour.
models. Also corrected typo which caused full bed scans to fail. Disabled
problematic detect for now, will make detection slightly slower. Patch from
