Hi Daniel,

OK. Should be fine.

Usually I use a perl script created by the SANE developers, which can
give the "plain" output of the commands, and there are some associated
programs that can then "build" an image from the sniffed data. But
here luckily the issue is not that the protocol is completely unknown,
simply that some modes are not yet supported.

I see, that is easier then. But we have to check---could be a command
block bit is incorrect also.
I would still appreciate if you can send me the sniffs for the
lower-resolution working modes (in color, grayscale and B/W), that way
I can make sure the working modes match what is implemented, and then
check for differences in the >600dpi modes.
