Updated .desc file. + +V 1.0.82 (2006-10-03) + +* Added support for Genius Colorpage SF600. + +V 1.0.81 (2006-05-21) + +* Added support for Plustek OpticPro S24 (some models). Added .conf entry for + Plustek OpticPro S12. + +V 1.0.80 (2006-01-02) + +* Added Plustek OpticPro S(T)12 (product id 0x040b). Mostly untested. +* Print warmup message 5 seconds after starting the warm-up. + +V 1.0.79 (2005-12-09) sane-backends 1.0.17 + +* Silenced warning when scan is cancelled. +* Silenced often non-fatal check_result error messages. +* Reduced timeout for cancelling a scan. Some scanners freeze for 30 seconds + otherwise. Repeat is_moving test even if an error was received. +* Run fix_descriptors before cancelling the scan. Without that, some gt6816 + scanners are not detected anymore after closing the device. +* Fixed wait_lamp_stable. Wait for a maximum time of 60 seconds. Print + warming up message after 5 seconds. Print how long warming up took. +* For Mustek ScanExpress A3 USB, use more intelligent warm-up mechanism. The + brightness for this scanner first decreases and then increases again. With the + previous logic the scanner always warmed up for at least 10 seconds even if it + wasn't necessary. +* Warm up lamp also when changing from flatbed to transparency. Without this the + lamp may be too dark directly after changing the source. +* Decreased scan width of Plustek OpticPro 1248U. This fixes some strange color + artifacts and results in less backtracking in some modes. + +V 1.0.78 (2005-10-16) + +* Minor modifications to sheet-fed scanner support. + +V 1.0.77 (2005-09-29) + +* Added support for Plustek OpticSlim M12 (untested). Based on patch from + Gerhard Jaeger <gerhard@gjaeger.de>. +* Fixed gt68xx homepage links in man page. Changed minimum version of libusb + to 0.1.8. + +V 1.0.76 (2005-09-18) + +* Fixed segfault that may happen with Mustek ScanExpress A3 USB. + +V 1.0.75 (2005-09-01) + +* Genius ColorPage Vivid 1200 X is reported to work. +* Genius ColorPage Vivid 4 XE seems to be the same as 4 X, it just doesn't have + buttons. +* Cleanup of .desc file. +* Fixed gain setting. +* Mustek ScanExpress A3 USB 600 dpi color scanning works now. + +V 1.0.74 (2005-08-20) + +* Increased number limit of scanners that can work with this backend to 50. +* Added support for Genius ColorPage Vivid 1200 X (untested). + +V 1.0.73 (2005-08-19) + +* Enabled GT68XX_FLAG_NO_STOP for Mustek BearPaw 2400 CU Plus. Some of these + scanners don't seem to like that command. + +V 1.0.72 (2005-08-18) + +* Finally fixed the problem concerning scanning on *BSD. Scanning only worked + once. After that, the scanner wasn't even detected anymore beacuse the config + descriptor returned by the device was corrupted. This is a hardware bug. When + filling the internal memory of the scanner completely, the config descriptor + is overwritten. The work-around is to ask the scanner for the device + descriptor before closing the device. This rewrites also the config descriptor + to the memory of the scanner. +* Fixed compilation warnings. + +V 1.0.71 (2005-07-10) Included in sane-backends 1.0.16 + +* Changed resolution from 75 to 100 dpi and changed 16 bit/color to 12 based on + a user report for the Visioneer OneTouch 7300. Updated .desc. +* Moved check for stable lamp to its own function. +* Mustek ScanExpress A3 USB: Use CIS calibration. Use lamp warmup. +* Fixed CCD on GT6801 scanning (color scanning was broken due to a change in + motormode_2. + +V 1.0.70 (2005-05-29) + +* Start exposure with the settings from the scanner entry. +* CIS Calibration and exposure uses a broader spectrum now. +* Expsoure limit is increased to 50 loops. +* Genius Vivid 4x is reported to work so the UNTESTED label is removed now. +* Visioneer 7300 is reported to work so the UNTESTED label is removed now. +* Genius ColorPage Vivid 1200XE: Removed UNTESTED label. Fixed + resolutions. Adjusted margins. Fixed color order. Fixed linedistance. + Adjusted AFE. +* Mustek ScanExpress 1248 UB: Fixed margins. Adjusted AFE. Adjusted + exposure. Adjusted gamma. Changed status to "complete". +* Mustek BearPaw 2400 CU Plus: Adsusted exposure and AFE parameters. Hopefully + stripes and similar trouble are gone now. +* Mustek BearPaw 1200 CU: Increased exposure to avoid vertical lines. +* Updated manual page. + +V 1.0.69 (2005-05-20) + +* Mustek BearPaw 1200 CU Plus model 0x21b works now. Fixed firmware and offset + settings. Calibration is not completely ok yet, however. +* Code cleanup for setup_scan (only one function for all chipsets). +* Simplified line mode/pixel mode setting +* Updated TODO. +* Mustek BearPaw 2448 TA Plus is now only "basic". Too much trouble for + "good". +* Removed option "fast preview". By default for preview mode 8 bits/pixel + are used. +* Fixed indentation. +* Full scan really scans from y=0 on gt6816 scanners now. + +V 1.0.68 (2005-05-07) + +* GT68XX_FLAG_NO_STOP is needed for BearPaw 2448 TA Plus. +* Plustek OpticSlim 2400: Fixed list of resolutions. That fixed the + preview. Removed "untested" warning.

It's completely untested. + +V 1.0-61 (2004-06-18) + +* General: + * Re-enabled forked reader process when fork is not disabled. That's faster + with high resolutions and big scan widths. + * In gray and lineart mode the color to be used can be selected now. + * Resolution and depth lists are now in the "correct" order. + * Fixed "move to the end" bug when full scan is enabled. + * Used SANE_VALUE_SCAN_MODE_* macros. + * Added debugging code for brightness/calibration. + * Changed status of Genius Colorpage Vivid4x too good. + * Removed special command set for U16B (and Genesys Vivid4) as those scanners + are quite normal GT6816 devices. + * Removed special test for gt6816, 600 dpi, 16 bits -> linemode. The other + tests should change the settings to linemode if necessary. + * Added flag to indicate that a scanner doesn't support linemode. Print an error + if linemode is activated for that sort of scanners. + * Adjusted various debug levels. + * Added options to force backtracking and to set the number of lines to + backtrack. + * Increased default lamp-warmup time to 60 seconds. Also lamp-warmup doesn't + stop if lamp brightness is 0. + * reader_process returns an error now if read fails. + * Added gt68xx.TODO. + * Removed XDBG macros.

This fixes the + problem with extremly high gains and terrible quality cal in gray mode at + least for the BearPaw 1200 TA. +--> Thanks to Alexei V. Mezin for reporting these bugs. +- Preview isn't always in 8 bit mode now (can be selected by option). +- Upper and lower limits for coarse calibration are unified now. +- Added options for adjusting gain and offset. + +V 1.0-37 (2003-01-18) + +- Removed untested flag from A3 USB and Lexmark X70/X73. + +V 1.0-36 (2003-01-09) + +- Updated manpage and .desc concerning Lexmark X70. +- Updated manpage concerning kernel 2.4.21-pre3 containing the 1-endpoint fix. +- Fixed A3 USB resolution setting. +- Updated A3 USB margins (Pedro Morais <morais@inocam.com>). +- Added detection of Genius Colorpage Vivid3x.

As at least + CIS calibration is faster now, it doesn't seem to be necessary and produces + wrong images sometimes. +- Added gamma table. +- Setup gamma to 2.0 by default. +- Fixed (hopefully) sigpipe when cancelling. +- No geometry quantization anymore (not necessary). That should fix scanimage + warnings. +- Plustek 1248U: do linemode for every resolution, fix color correction. +- Set SANE_CAP_EMULATED for gamma value. +- Added comments for every Model member in gt68xx_devices. +- Added Plustek UT16B and Genius Vivid3x to .desc. +- Added implementation for inverted offset for CCD scanners. +- Added Mustek ScanExpress 2400 USB.

Set AFE and exposure in every model struct. +- Faster automatic gain setting for the CIS scanners. The default values from + the model struct and the last values are used for calculation. +- Set default AFE values for ScanExpress 1200 UB Plus, BearPaw 1200 CU, BearPaw + 2400 CU Plus. + +V 1.0-27 (2002-10-25) + +- Bugfix: override applies to all devices found by the last usb line. +- Individual resolutions + depth values for every scanner. +- Bugfix: Mirroring code had an off-by-one error (garbage in the first column). +- Artec Ultima 2000, MD 9385: Removed 1200 dpi mode (doesn't seem to work?), + added 100 and 200 dpi modes. Renamed model to Artec Ultima 2000, because + that's probably the "father" of all the clones. +- Mustek BearPaw 1200 CU: Added 200 dpi mode. +- Added manual page. +- Removed override for Packard Bell (seems to be exact Bearpaw 1200 CU Plus + clone). +- Removed override for Trust Copmact Scan and Medion/Tevion/Lifetec LT 9452 + (Mustek ScanExpress 1200 UB Plus clones). +- Removed override for Tevion MD 9458 (seems to be an Artec Ultima 2000 (e +?) + clone). + +V 1.0-26 (2002-10-22) + +- Several fixes for Medion MD-9385 and Artec Ultima 2000 based scanners. The + Cytron MD 9385 works now. +- Diabled Plustek-like firmware check again, didn't work for MD 9385. +- Splitted flags for mirror_x and sset_home. + +V 1.0-25 (2002-10-20) + +- Fixed segfault for GT-6801 based scanners. +- Added override for Medion MD9385. +- Changed firmware detection code for Plustek scanners. +- CIS autogain seraches max white and min black now (removed segment code). + Hopefully no more vertical stripes. +- Adjusted ScanExpress 1200 UB Plus and BearPaw 1200 CU geometry and white + strip. + +V 1.0-24 (2002-10-12) + +- Added "override" keyword for gt68xx.conf.
