[sane-devel] Plustek OpticFilm 7400 minor issues

[Ralph Little]

Hi,
Thank you for your report!

We don't have an active maintainer at the moment for the genesys backend so
it might take a while to get to this, since I'm pretty swamped with other
stuff at the moment.

The best thing I can suggest is to create an issue here so that we do not
forget: https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends

Hopefully, one of us will be able to help you at some point.
Cheers,
Ralph
