CHANGES for the SANE Mustek backend
2000-11-05
* Added support for TAIV for SE 12000 SP. Lamp is turned off while
scanning (seems to work for firmware >= 2.00)
* Adjusted transparency adapter support for all ScanExpress scanners.
The 12000 A3 SP can only do A4 beacuse I don't have the right TA.
* don't use u_int* types in mustek.h because the definitions for these
types are not included
2000-11-04
* SE scanners can now scan 75, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 400, 500, 600,
900 and 1200 dpi in color mode (the 1200 dpi models). These are fixed
resolutions, a resolution >= the wanted resolution is selected. This
makes preview and some resolutions faster than before (at least for
some scanners), because lower resolutions can be used.
* Minimum scan resolution is 60 dpi in gray and lineart and 75 dpi in
color mode for the SE scanners now.
2000-10-29
* Fixed a bug concerning block LD. Paragon 1 and 2 were exchanged.
* Paragon 12000SP color mode works now without garbage at the end
* Fixed Paragon 1200 SP Pro color mode > 600 dpi (rounding problem)
* Temporarily disabled 48 bit color mode for release
2000-10-25
* Detect support for TA IV (transparency adapter for ScanExpress scanners)
* TA IV supported now; lamp is turned off at least for SE 1200 SP Plus
scanners
* Adjusted scan area for TA: SE 12000SP Plus
* Simplify enlarge x
* Set tl-y to 0 for all ScanExpress scanners
* First attempt to support 48 bits color mode (SE 12000 SP Plus)

2000-09-23
* Paragon 12000CX uses pixel unit now.
* Paragon 6000CX uses pixel unit now (MSF-06000CZ).
* Option "force backtracking" is enabled by default now
* Option "scan speed" is set to "fastest" by default now

* added some testing (result != null and arg !=0) in sense_handler
(found by Martin Blasczyk)
2000-08-20
* Paragon series II is also using blockmode now.
* Removed warning from mustek.c.
* Fixed (maybe) problem in scsi_sense_wait_ready and added more
debug output.
2000-08-18
* added new option blocksize to mustek.conf
* 800 II SP works now in new block mode (get_image_status is needed
before each block)
2000-08-17
* Removed some warnings from sanei_ab306.c.
2000-08-16
* Fixed some bugs in fix_linedistance_block. Paragon 600 models seem to
work now. 800 II SP freezes, however.
* Fixed segmentation fault for the 600 II N in ld correction code.
2000-08-15
* Changed handling of three pass scanners (MUSTEK_FLAG_THREE_PASS instead of
!MUSTEK_FLAG_SINGLE_PASS).
* Added flags for Paragon series I and II (MUSTEK_PLAG_PARAGON_1 and
MUSTEK_PLAG_PARAGON_2).
* Distinguish between three-pass, Paragon series 1, Paragon series 2,
ScanExpress, Pro and N type scanners.
* Added support for scanning the whole image in one block without
backtracking for the Paragon series II scanners.
* Added fix_linedistance_block: like linedistance_normal but broken
up into several SCSI buffers.
2000-08-14
* Changed again linedistance correction for the Paragon 12000 SP 1.11.
This seems to be a never ending story.
* Set the minimum dpi value to 30. Some scanners (e.g. the MFS 8000SP
v 2.04) block the SCSI bus with lower resolutions.
2000-08-12
* Added support for Paragon 1200 SP Pro.
* Added support for ScanExpress A3 SP.
* Removed detection for " C12" and " C04" (don't seem to exist).
* Changed SCSI read request scheme. Now two requests with half of the
maximum SCSI buffer size are entered. Standard buffer size is 128 kB,
so the buffer sent to the scanner is 64 kB for all types of scanners.
* sane_read now reads more than 4096 bytes from pipe (if available).
2000-08-12
* SANE 1.0.3 released (including Mustek backend 1.0.96).
2000-07-31
* Released backend version 1.0-96.
2000-07-30
* Fixed bug concerning inquiry of 3-pass scanners. ASCII values > 127
weren't interpreted correctly (char instead of unsigned char).
2000-07-30
* Released backend version 1.0-95
2000-07-30
* Removed while {wait ()} loop. Used waitpid() instead. Maybe this cures
some reported freezes. It's cleaner anyway.
* Removed dead code.
2000-07-28
* Released backend version 1.0-94
2000-07-29
* Use #include "sane/..." instead of #include <sane/...>.
2000-07-27
* Released backend version 1.0-93
2000-07-27
* removed warnings
2000-07-26
* fixed possible segfault pointer info was not checked for 0 (found by
Petter Reinholdtsen)
* Updated comment about Paragon 600 II N linedistance correction in man
page
2000-07-25
* Fixed color scanning for Paragon 600 II N firmware < 2.00.
2000-07-25
* Released backend version 1.0-92
2000-07-24
* Fixed ADF handling (output was mirrored in x direction). Gray and lineart
seems to work now. Color and halftone modes look somewhat crazy.
* Removed comment about lack of testing of ADFs in manpage. They are
tested to work now with most scanner at least basically.
* removed braindead test for Pro series concerning gamma table length
(discovered by Jan-Erik Karlsson).
2000-07-22
* Fixed margin positions of MFS 6000CX and removed warning.
* Warning is printed with DBG level 0 again.
2000-07-18
* Released backend version 1.0-91
2000-07-18
* Removed again MUSTEK_FLAG_LD_NONE for MFS-08000SP. Maybe the automatical
detection works now.
2000-07-15
* Released backend version 1.0-90
2000-07-15
* Added MUSTEK_FLAG_LD_NONE for MFS-08000SP and removed warning for
this scanner. Added TA support. First report for this device from
Roland Koebler.
* Changed LD correction system. Some scanners (e.g. the 800 II SP)
seem to need different LD correction depending on resolution.
Now with LD_NORMAL max_value is checked and correction is only done
if it is != 0. Hope this works for all scanners.
* Moved the comment after the example port entry in mustek.conf to
the next line. Now this line should work.
* Updated manpage concerning PP scanners and 600 II N.
2000-06-30
* Released backend version 1.0-89
2000-06-30
* Fixed bug in do_stop. The scan slider didn't return after the scan
in some situations.
2000-06-28
* Released backend version 1.0-88
2000-06-28
* Changed again linedistance handling for the Paragon 1200SP. This
time version 1.07 seems to need a special treetment. Even with normal
linedistance correction the image is corrupted at buffer boundaries
in color mode. Maybe a firmware bug? Thanks to Michael Prechtl for
all his tests.
2000-06-25
* added missing newline to mustek.conf
2000-06-25
* Released backend version 1.0-87

24 bit per pixel are supported (12/36 are possible in hardware)
2000-06-16
* addded debugging output in sane_control_option
* added gamma correction for Paragon 1200 A3 Pro (doesn't work correctly yet)
2000-06-15

mode works so far. Missing: Gamma correction and calibration. The scanner
is locked after each scan.
2000-06-12
* Fixed bug in sane_control_option. option was not checked for negative
values. Thanks to Jochen Eisinger.
* Code cleanup and reorganization for inclusion of the Paragon 1200 A3 Pro.
2000-06-07
* Fixed bug in sane_close where the chain of handles got destroyed by
closing the first device. This bug is in the backend since 3 1/2 years.
Thanks to Jochen Eisinger for spotting this.
2000-06-05
* Fixed some debug messages in fix_linedistance_se
2000-06-04
* released backend version 1.0-85
2000-06-04

normal LD corrections, all other use none. We'll see, if this works.
Thanks to Reinhard G<>nzel who helped to debug this.
* fixed some long lines (>80 chars)
2000-06-03
* released backend version 1.0-84
2000-06-03
* changed line-distance handling, removed ld.max_value magic (didn't work)
* fixed (maybe) Paragon 12000 SP color stripes problems (v 1.11 and others)
* simpler linedistance debug output, only for 1-pass Paragon scanners
2000-06-02
* removed code in dev_read_start which was never called (suggestion
from Jan-Erik Karlsson)
2000-05-21
* added double buffering (trying to copy the scsi buffer to the frontend
while getting a new one). This probably won't work on all
platforms and with all SCSI host adapters but in this case performance
shouldn't be worse than before.
2000-05-21
* released backend version 1.0-83
2000-05-21
* The Mustek Paragon 1200 A3 PRO is now detected. This is only a test

These modes didn't work for any of my scanners.

SE and N models TA is always available because it can't be detected
by hardware
