	Hello,

	the 5600f is a gl847 based scanner and should be added in the genesys 
backend. Denis has sent me a few logs that I need to process to give you some 
hints on how to add it.
	I'm currently working on the OpticBook 3600 patch sent recently. I think 
I'll have enough time this week to send you precise explanations on the steps 
to take to add this scanner.

Regards,
	Stef
