Hi Friends of Sane,

when I take a preview with e.g. A5across and setting for color, so the preview 
seems to be verry green.

Now I choose the scanarea, and make the final scan, so the result is with 
correct colors.

I'm using the following system and versions:
SuSE 10.0 with actual security patches
Kernel 2.6.15-jad2-default
sane 1.0.17 
xsane 0.991

I hope, you can help.

Thanx,
Christoph

Subject: [sane-devel] Epson 3490 copy
Message-ID: <[email protected]>

I recently exchanged my Epson 3170 for and Epson 3490 because I was 
unhappy with Iscan. I may have made a mistake. I am using Mandriva 
2006CE, sane-backends 1.0.17 and xsane 0.991. I am using the default 
settings.

When I try to make a copy to printer, the preview scan in color and gray 
scale  produces a gray tint where it should be white. This prints out. 
In the lineart mode I get a satisfactory printout. However if I try to 
crop at the bottom the top gets cut off on the printout.

With nothing in the scanner I get the same graysih shading.

I tried to copy a color picture in gimp. The preview look fair except 
the lines were jagged at the  major color changes. When I scanned it the 
picture looked like it had a good case of grayish colored measles.

Is this a defective scanner?

Gary
