    The Snapscan backend currently treats the 1236S as if it is a 30bit
    scanner. The Afga site says its a 36bit scanner. In that case the error may
    be a simple one. In snapscan.c look for the section that sets the colour
    depth for the scanner (look for pd->depths = depths12). In that sections
    add the line "case SNAPSCAN1236S:" above the existing line "case
    PRISA620S:" and see what happens.

    Remember - this is just a guess!
