With "scanimage -d mustek:/dev/scanner --help", I get:

:
Geometry:
-l 0..220mm [0]
Top-left x position of scan area.
-t 0..292mm [0]
Top-left y position of scan area.
-x 0..220mm [220]
Width of scan-area.
-y 0..292mm [292]
Height of scan-area.

Seems to be there just fine.

I got permission to make my SANE article (published in Linux Journal
in March 1998) available online. Reading it should help to avoid the
most basic errors (such as not picking the right device when
specifying --help).

Matto, will you send me a note/patch when the new Microtek backend is
ready?

Thanks,
