Hello,

the newhp-backend of Geoffrey T. Dairiki is now available in a
modified version. Support for the HP Photosmart Photoscanner has
been added. Geoffrey acknowledged further work on his backend
as long as noone has to pay for the code. I think the usual
licence notices in the current hp-backend will do that.
Therefore these notices have also been added to his sources.

Please see

or

ftp://members.aol.com/pkirchg/pub/sane

for more information. Sources and a patch for the configure and
makefiles of SANE 0.71 are available there.
After installation you will have a new backend called xhp.
Please test the backend with different HP-scanners.

Enhancements against the hp-backend:
- Selectable options depend on active scanner model
- Custom gamma table
- options to select color matrix / scan speed / smoothing / calibration
mirroring

Happy testing

Peter Kirchgessner
