[sane-devel] [Epson 3170] Options for scanimage

Hi all,



I bought this week-end an Epson 3170 and I am quite disppointed with
scanimage's behaviour. Scans can be made all right, but several critical
options seem to have no effect:

        --brightness
        --sharpness
        --threshold
        --speed

Oddly, --preview makes the scan twice as long (making it 50s for
--mode Color in 300dpi).

On the other hand, --resolution does work.


Is this a know problem with the 3170?
Since --resolution works, I guess the problem does not stem from a
faulty install, but I can make tests as needed.


Thanks for your help.
Seb.
