	Hello,

	for the image quality, I think you could concentrate on on full sensor 
resolution and 'half ccd' resolution. In these modes AVEENB is of no influence 
since no averaging or deletion occurs. Then you can adjust the offset to be 
used for shading data. To find the correct offset some trial and error is 
needed. You'll have to change it's value until bright vertical lines match the 
closest dark vertical line in scans (you could scan only the white cover of 
the scanner, lines are more visible). You may try first the offset values from 
other GL841 scanners. 
	Once done, you may choose to keep averaging, but in this case you'll have to 
tune compute_coefficients to do the same averaging than the planar method used 
for the CCD_CANONLIDE35.

Regards,
	Stef
