The canon_dr sane backend already has a deskew option. It is a software implementation, as only the most expensive Canon machines have hardware deskew.
I might be able to borrow from the canon driver, if it has a compatible license with sane, and the source is truly included. Do you have a link? In the meantime, the brightness and contrast controls provided by the backend might help. allan On Fri, Sep 23, 2016 at 3:53 AM, Thomas Geier <ziggys...@gmx.de> wrote: > Hi, > > I think this is the known state for this scanner, which are the same as for > the P-208 (without II).
