That is the reason, why two backends exist for Microtek scanners.

Probably, but there are more things to do. I have a version of the backend
that has preliminary (which means untested) support for a transparency
media adapter. The ADF should be activated very much the same way.
I hope to have a version with (as well untested) support for an ADF within
the next days. However, the backend is currently in an intermediate state
due to some changes, so that it takes probably some days to get it
reasonably running again at all.
