backend/epson.c: Allow more than 8 bit color depth for
preview mode since Xsane can handle this. Some code cleanup.
Removed ancient code that was used to determine the resolution
back when the backend still had a slider for the resolution
selection.
backend/epson.desc: Updated version number, added new scanners.
Added sense handler to support the GT-8000 scanner.
Also added experimental (and #ifdef protected) USB scanner probing
code - requires patch to USB scanner driver.
backend/epson.c:
- Removed check for '\n' before end of line
- Free memory malloced in sane_get_devices() in sane_exit() again
- Check first if the scanner does support the set film type and set
focus position before the GUI elements are displayed.
- This caused problems with older (B4 level) scanners when a TPU
was connected.
Added bit-depth selection again.
Fixed problem with bilevel scanning with Perfection610: The
line count has to be an even number with this scanner.
Several initialization fixes regarding bit depth selection.
This version goes back into the CVS repository, the 1.0.4
release is out and therefore the code freeze is over.
Some general cleanup, added more comments
Removed changes regarding 12/14 bit support because of SANE
feature freeze for 1.0.4.
The following fixes are in the software compared to the version
prior to the feature freeze:
- refresh UI after a change in the scan mode setting (was not updated
when going from Binary to Gray or vice versa)
- Read values for "line distance" from the scanner instead of using
hardcoded values. This makes sure the backend always uses the correct
values regardless of firmware version.
- Fixed an "off-by-one" error in the color reordering routine that
caused weird artifacts in some instances.
20011023 (from karsten.festag@t-online.de (Karsten Festag)).
Bugfix for scsi_read_image_status - supports now the old and the
new method. Improved backend-calibration supports brightness and
contrast settings and color balancing. Enable 12 bit per color
scanning with Scanmaker 9600XL (and other types that use the segreg
pixel transfer format and support 12 bit, untested). 10 bit does not
work yet. Make C6 USB work.

1.0-98. Fixed segmentation fault in sane_init. Enabled double
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
default, "scan speed" is set to "fastest". Added option
"force-warn" for mustek.conf. Rewrote halftone mode. Better error
handling and more debug output.

xscanimage not updating the progress bar for 3pass scanners to
frontend section. Removed umax entry in "frontends". Removed entry
about alpha channel (was added to LEVEL2 file).
* 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
Matthew Duggan <stauff1@users.sourceforge.net>.
Henning Meier-Geinitz <henning@meier-geinitz.de>
* fixed color transfer for 1600P models
* fixed potential crash if dump file couldn't be opened for writing
* added ppdev device name handling
* added model override
and --enable-parport-directio.
NOTE: While I know, what the SCSI direct IO means, I have no idea, what
direct IO means in the context of the parport, so somebody needs to add
some useful description about parport direct io to configure.in and to
README (or README.linux)
