yeap- looks like bad per-cell calibration in the blue and green channels of blue2.pnm, but the red channel clearly shows the size of the 'sub-units' that makeup the read head. at this point, you would need to get some traces of the calibration code in the windows driver (i prefer benoit's usbsnoop), and then spend some time trying to improve the calibration the backend does. unfortunately, the backend is unmaintained, and this kind of work is hardwithout access to the scanner, so it looks like it's all you :) allan -- "The truth is an offense, but not a sin"
