Subject: Scanner Canon LiDE20

Hello,

I have a Canon LiDE20 scanner and use it with the plustek driver at my PC running Linux
Suse 8.1
with sane 1.0.9. I'm new to Linux and so I#ve got no experience in programming or compiling.
But with a little help form the usenet I suceeded in using the Canon with Xsane or Kooka.
I also know, that the current plustek driver is a beta 0.45 version with annonced "poor
picture quality". But I#d like to know what this "poor quality" meens.
I see 2 problems with the pictures :
- scanning "colour" documents create pictures that are much to red, i.e. white areas
look "light red"

- scanning "gray" documents create really gray (not red) pictures but they have horizontal
black lines every few pixels 

Is this what you meen with "poor quality" ?
Is it possible to reduce the red colour by defining any parameters ?
Is anyone working at this driver and needs someone (me) to test it with the Canon LiDE20
?

Best regards
  U w e    K o c h
