Well, it's not listed as supported at all in our lists. I'll cc this mail to the maintainer of the microtek2 backend: Karsten, should that scanner be added to the microtek2 backend (at least as "minimal support")? > 1.

If you don't get answers on this list, you can also try to contact the maintainer of the microtek2 backend directly: Karsten Festag <[email protected]> > 2.

I can't speak about that specific scanner but I know about scanners that are named "1200" and their real resolution is 600 dpi. So it may be just marketing. > 3. XSane's Preview does not work at all.

That's strange. XSane itsself doesn't know anything about that scanner. The backend (microtek2) does all the low-level work. So maybe the backend version also changed? > 4.

I mean - the scanned > image is not this large; the window showing it is. (This is also new > with 0.92; the previous version did not exhibit this problem.) That's an xsane issue. I haven't seen it happeneing here, however. Ask Oliver Rauch <[email protected]> if you don't get answers here. With my window mangaer (enlightenment) I can move such windows by pressing ALT + left mouse button anywhere in the window. Bye, Henning
