I will incorporate this model code into the backend.<br>

<p>
Then you are lucky. What is needed is a shading correction. I have some<br>
information how to do this shading correction for the Phantom 336cx, but<br>
I assume it is the same for the SlimScan C3. However, this will need some<br>
modifications, and don't have such a model, so I won't be able to test<br>
it. Unfortunately, the algorithm to correct the colours is somewhat different<br>
for other Phantom/Slimscan models like the C6/Phantom 636cx.<br>
