Hi, some scanners even have simplex / duplex buttons or even fine grained to up/down arrows to setup resolution, color mode etc. (i.g. the popular HP 7400).
In the Avision backend I know use a string option to spit out a message the program can parse. Going with the current trend, maybe a xml string should be used to describe whatever is setup on the device?
