Dear Colleagues,<br>
<br>
I would like to make some changes to the operation of a CanoScan
600F. However, since I do not have any experience in these matters,
I thought it best to write to the community for advice - I presume
that I should be making some changes to the SANE backend driver.<br>
<br>
The following are the operations I would like to achieve and I
would be very happy for your detailed instructions on how I achieve
this.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-style:
normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing:
normal; line-height: 24px; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px;
text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;
display: inline ! important; float: none;"><span
class="Apple-converted-space">1)</span> turn off the built-in
LED illumination, since I plan to use an external LED
illumination.<br>
2) turn off the calibration step which automatically sets the gain
and the offset of each individual sensor pixel, prior to scanning.<br>
3) set the pixel clock to the available minimum frequency to slow
down the speed of the scanning and thus increase the "exposure
time". <br>
4) increase the gain of the sensor to its maximum possible value.
<br>
5) set the resolution of the scan to 1200 dpi.<span

<br>
I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.
Thanks very much in advance!<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Shashi
