This backend dynamically enabeles the options that are supported
by the scanner in dependence of the scanning-mode and other options. Here
is an example of the frontend
<a href="http://www.xsane.org">XSane</a>:
<br>
<br>
<br>
<center><img SRC="sane-umax.jpg" alt="main-window"></center>
<p><br>
The options Gamma, brightness, contrast and negative in the
main window come from xsane that calculates a gamma table using this values.
These values are corelated to highlight, midlight and shadow sliders in
the Histogram window.

<td>Use free definable scanner internal digital gamma table.
<br>If you enable this option, the gamma correction is done inside the
scanner. If you have a scanner with more than 8/24 bits/pixel, the image
is scanned with the maximum available bit depth. The gamma correction does
transform the image form the internal bit depth to the selected output
<b><i>bit depth</i></b> (see below).
<br>The frontends do handle the usage of the gamma table different. If
you use xsane, you should enable this option to use the maximum available
bit depth (otherwise xsane does the conversion with the selected output
bit depth).
<br>(Side-effect: digital gamma correction may reduce the number of used
colors -especally if the used bit depth is low.)</td>

<td>Double optical resolution</td>

the maximum scanresolution. *</td>

</tr>
<tr>
<td>Bit depth</td>
<td>Image depth in bits/sample the scanner sends to the computer, normally
8 in grayscale and color mode. Some scanners support more than 8bits/sample,
but only few file formats support it. If your scanner supports more than
8bis/sample you already get an improvement if you set the bit detpth to
8 and enable the option <i>use custom gamma table</i> (see above) because
the scanner internal gamma correction is done with the maximum available
bit depth!!!
