[sane-devel] LIDE 60. configure scanning prefs?

[m. allan noah]

I did a bit of digging in the source, and it appears that you could
set GENESYS_FLAG_NO_CALIBRATION in the Lide60 entry in
backend/genesys_devices.c (along with removing the existing
calibration flags), and rebuild sane-backends. That should bypass the
calibration code.
