Subject: Not the best image quality with Epson Perfection 1250 Photo

Dear all,

when scanning with my Perfection 1250 Photo I do get pretty acceptable 
results!!! However, it is perceivable not the same quality as I get from the 
epson software package I have installed on my win98 partition. That is the 
colours don't match as good as with the epson package and by in large the 
resulting images are also a bit too dark.

I already read that this was sometime already noticed to be a bug 
(http://www.linuxhacker.org/cgi-bin/ezmlm-cgi/3/2149 || please 
correct me if I am wrong). My question is if it would make sense to upgrade 
to the latest (beta) release (of the backend)  or if there is any other 
opportunity to fix the problem (changing anythin in the plustek.conf of 
copying any file from the windows configuration?).

I'm currently using the following on debian woody:
  deb:                  version:
libsane              1.0.12-4             
libsane-dev          1.0.12-4             
sane                 1.0.11-2             
sane-utils           1.0.12-4             
xsane                0.91-4               


I am grateful for any suggestions (and the superb work you do),

Jens (by way of Nadine Heymann)
