I'm using a Canon Lide 60 scanner in combination with Simple Scan 3.20.0 on Xubuntu 16.04 . Appearently someone mixed up the direction of the sliders, i.e. if you want to scan darker you now have to move the slider towards "brighter". Same with "contrast" and possibly "quality".

However, for my scanner, they seem to have no effect, and resulting scans of color text documents are still very gray, just as when the brightness and contrast are set to the default values, or in prior version of simple-scan that did not have the sliders. My scanner is a Canon Canoscan LIDE 110. Using xsane, I can easily adjust the brightness and contrast, so I don't believe it is a problem with the scanner itself, but I am happy to perform any tests. I am using simple-scan 3.12.1 in Trusty.
