If you notice any bugs which are not documented in the manpage or
webpage, please tell me about them! And, if you'd like to help
with exterminating the bugs, even better. I've never even seen
a 35t+ slide scanner, so it's hard to optimize code for it (esp.
given the, uh, 'sporadic' quality of the Microtek documentation).

The recommended microtek.conf entry is "scsi * * Scanner" ---
Microtek's firmware is pretty inconsistent and unreliable as far
as standard ID strings go; the backend is capable of carefully
looking at every scsi scanner device to figure out if it's a
supported scanner or not.
