    :) so the descriptions:
    .Warmup-time: This is almost necessary for most entry level scanners to
    warmup
        the lamp, in driver level, must have API to report the warmup remain
    times, i don't
        understand why people under SANE never discuss about that ? this is
    pretty common
        under Windows.
    H/W JPEG scanning: simple! the scanner ouput jpeg image without any effort
    of driver,
                                    the only effort is that we need to add jpeg
    file header to this raw
                                    image data.
    S/W JPEG decompress: this is "run time" decompress, you can never predict
    the exact
                                    data(after decompress) you will, so many
    extra efforts need to
                                    implement.
