+XSane uses a gamma table to do the following enhancement functions.

+XSane uses the scanner internal gamma table with the scanner's maximum
+bit depth.

+
+<blockquote>
+The gamma correction is a non linear correction. Black keeps black and white keeps white
+<blockquote>
+if the gamma value is greater than 1.0 the gray intensities are brightned

+if the gamma value is smaller than 1.0 the gray intensities are darkened

+<blockquote>
+positive values increase the brightness of the image. All values
+are increased by the same value. 100% means a shift of the half value range
+(on 8 bits (256 values) this means a shift of 128).

+<blockquote>
+positive values increase the contrast of the image. Medium gray keeps medium gray (8 bits: 128)
+<blockquote>
+-100% means that all colors become medium gray

+defines the brightness level in % that is needed to get a white
+point in lineart (black/white) mode. You have to enter some options in

+if RGB default is activated, all values for the color components
+(red, green and blue) are set to the default values (gamma=1.0, brightness=0%,
+contrast=0%). If you deactivate it, you can set different enhancement values
+for each color.

+<blockquote>
+This option inverts the intensities (black &lt;-> white). It
+is for scanning negatives.
+<br>
+<br>
+Negatives do not only have inverted colors, it also is necessary to
+do a color correction for each color component because the negatives have
+very different color ranges for each color.

+<blockquote>
+If you press this button XSane tries to set good values for
+brightness, contrast and gamma correction in dependance of the selected
+part in the preview window. This does work quiet well for brightness and
+contrast, but the gamma correction normally has to be corrected manually.
+<br>If RGB default is disabled, the components for each color are set individually.
