With ADF this + scanner doesn't really work in color mode but that's probably a firmware + problem. + +2001-03-18 + * 600 II N: Gamma correction in gray mode now works. Length must be 768 + bytes in gray mode also, cdb size is 6 bytes. Thanks to Jakub Bogusz + <qboosh@prioris.mini.pw.edu.pl> who found out about that and wrote a + patch. + +2001-01-17 + * Released Mustek backend 1.0-104 + +2001-01-17 + * Pro: Do calibration only in Lineart, Gray and Color 24 modes. + +2001-01-03 + * Added 36 bit color mode for the Paragon Pro scanners. + +2000-12-31 + * Added function little_endian (from coolscan.c) to check the endianess of + the current architecture (needed for 16 bit frames). + * Added option for Gray fast + * Added option for bit depth (8 and 12 bits for the Pro models) + * Removed "special" modes from mode option + * Removed 48 bit options for the SE Plus. This mode seems to use only + interpolated information (but I may be wrong). + +2000-12-31 + * Released Mustek backend 1.0-103 + +2000-12-30 + * Implemented calibration (color and gray mode) for the Paragon 1200 Pro. + It's not perfect and needs lots of tests. It may work for the Paragon + A3 also but is not tested. + * SE 12000 SP Plus calibration is now better but not yet perfect. + +2000-12-27 + * Enabled fast_preview for the Pro scanners (30 dpi). + * Increased scan width to 8.6" for 1200 Pro. + +2000-12-26 + * Added calibration for the SE 12000 SP Plus. Doesn't fully work until now + (images are too dark and colored). + +2000-12-23 + * Added option for Legal format (because the ScanExpress 12000 SP A4 size + scanner can't be distinguished from the Paragon 1200 LS Legal size scanner + by software). + +2000-12-21 + * Added a few checks for Null-Pointers. + * Removed old code for SE calibration. + * Added option "quality calibration" for SE Plus scanners + +2000-12-21 + * sane-backends 1.0.4 was released (including Mustek backend 1.0.102). + +2000-12-10 + * Released Mustek backend 1.0-102 + +2000-12-09 + * Fixed wrong comment in encode_resolution + * Added missing test for return status in sane_start + * Fixed wrong calculation of tlx and tly for Pro series scanners + +2000-12-05 + * Released Mustek backend 1.0-101 + +2000-12-05 + * Fixed lamp setting (avoid problems with some SE scanners). + +2000-12-01 + * Reduced scan area for Paragon 1200 SP PRO (to avoid bumping the scan slider + at the end). + * Removed warning for 1200 SP PRO. + +2000-11-26 + * Released Mustek backend 1.0-100 + +2000-11-26 + * Default for "fast preview" is "false" now because this option doesn't work + for all SE scanners correctly. + * Added more debug output for area_and_windows. + * Added more debug output for set_window. + * Set minimum tly for 8000SP to 0. + * Don't use block mode for Paragon 8000 SP scanners because this breaks + color mode with firmware 2.x. + +2000-11-19 + * Paragon 6000 SP doesn't use block mode any more. It's a bit faster now. + * Updated sane-mustek.man concerning buffersize and blocksite. + +2000-11-17 + * Updated manpage concerning force-wait. Some minor corrections and additions + * Added option force-wait to mustek.conf and did some minor changes. + +2000-11-16 + * With option force_wait set, the backend waits also before sending the + inquiry command. This seems to be necessary for the 600 II N. + +2000-11-12 + * Use SANE_Int, SANE_Bool, SANE_Word for int wherever this seems to + be appropriate. + * Move macros to mustek.h. + * Code cleanup. + +2000-11-11 + * OPT_GRAY_PREVIEW is now called OPT_FAST_PREVIEW. + * For SE scanners use 36/38 dpi color for fast preview. + * use include "../include/sane/" instead of "sane/" + * go back to old scheme for SE scanners in color mode (faster scans + couldn't be reproduced) + +2000-11-10 + * added more debug output in constrain_value + +2000-11-05 + * Released backend version 1.0-99. + +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) + +2000-10-22 + * Detect SE 12000 SP Plus properly + * Cover sensor only checked for SE models that support this feature + +2000-10-21 + * Removed MAX_BLOCKSIZE macro (not used anymore). + +2000-10-03 + * Released backend version 1.0-98. + +2000-10-03 + * Fixed segmentation fault in sane_init (else statement was missing). + Thanks to Oliver Rauch who spotted this problem. + * Re-enabled double buffering. + +2000-10-02 + * Zero out inquiry memory block before reading inquiry. + +2000-10-01 + * Fixed fix_line_distance_block. + * Adjusted Paragon 12000 SP to use block LD correction if necessary. + * removed LD MFS (wasn't used anyway) + +2000-09-30 + * Set blockbuffer size to 2 MB for Paragon series II scanners. + * Fix sane_cancel for Paragon series II scanners + * Fix speed and grain for Paragon series II scanners + * Backtracking is used for all scanners (removed option) + * included stop_scan into do_stop + * better integration of the wait_ready functions + * check that size of buffer <= size of block buffer + +2000-09-24 + * Added more debug output in sane_get_option_descriptor. + * Added more debug output in sane_control_option. + * Added check for devicename and handle != 0 in sane_open + * Added check for handle != 0 in sane_get_option_descriptor + * Added check for handle != 0 in sane_get_parameters + * Added check for handle and val != 0 in sane_control_option + * Added check for handle != 0 in sane_start + * Added check for handle, buf and len != 0 in sane_read + * Added check for handle != 0 in sane_cancel + * Added check for handle != 0 in sane_set_io_mode + * Added check for handle != 0 in sane_get_select_fd + * Output option title in sane_get_option_descriptor if name is null + +2000-09-24 + * Released backend version 1.0-97. + +2000-09-24 + * Added RGB brightness and contrast for 3pass scanners + * Brightness and contrast is +-100% for 3pass scanners now + +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 + * Add option "force-wait" (for mustek.conf). If enabled, wait for scan + head to return to start position after scan. + * Make DBG output in sane_control_option() more readable + * Better error handling and debug output in sane_get_option_descriptor() + * Changed Halftone handling, removed grain size + +2000-09-22 + * Paragon 12000SP 1.06 uses LD_NORMAL now. + +2000-09-19 + * Return sane_status_cancelled in sane_read if last scan was cancelled. + +2000-09-18 + * Changed speed_code to use values between 1...5 for 3pass scanners. + I don't know yet if these are correct for the other scanners, too. + * Don't do a stop scan for 3pass scanners (only when cancelling). + * Set bit 0 of first byte of area_and_windows for gray + color. + * Paragon 6000CX uses pixel unit now (MFS-06000CX). + * Pixel unit for 3pass scanners is now supported + +2000-09-17 + * changed maximum y range of MFS-800 II SP to 288 mm because of + a report of scanner touching the end. + +2000-09-10 + * 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.

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 + +2000-06-25 + * updated manpage concerning parport and USB scanners + * added example for 600 II N to mustek.conf + +2000-06-22 + * fixed debug output bug in fix_linedistance_se (found by Jan-Erik Karlsson) + +2000-06-21 + * fixed dependancy of mustek.h on sane-backends.h + +2000-06-19 + * Fixed gamma correction in lineart mode for Paragon 1200 A3 + +2000-06-18 + * Released backend version 1.0-86 + +2000-06-18 + * added enlarging x resolution for Paragon 1200 A3 Pro + * Paragon 1200 A3 PRO is fully functional now. Thanks to Heinrich Falk, who + borrowed me this device. + +2000-06-17 + * added calibration for Paragon 1200 A3 Pro (only dummy, doesn't work yet) + * adjusted options for Paragon 1200 A3 Pro + * added lineart support for Paragon 1200 A4 Pro + * removed support for color lineart and color halftone modes + * added color support for Paragon 1200 A3 Pro + * added scsi_wait_sense, this fixed 1200 A3 Pro hangs + * fixed gamma correction for 1200 A3 Pro. At the moment only 8 bit and + 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 + * removed old config file reading system. + +2000-06-14 + * Preliminary support for the Mustek Paragon 1200 A3 Pro. Only grayscale + mode works so far. Missing: Gamma correction and calibration.
