Hi Clemens,

thanks for your help. Your solution hit the point. With version 1.00 sane
recognizes my mustek. Perhaps you also know a solution for my next problem:
scanning with colors I always get horizontal stripes on my pictures ( it
looks like partly lost colors). I tried the options linedistance-fix and
lineart-fix, but no combination works. Playing a bit with the option
strip-height didn't solve the problem. What can I do ?

ciao,

Joachim
