My scanner worked perfectly with TWAIN/XP, but since switching to Kubuntu 8.10 a week ago, I get horrible scans with Xsane.. Much too red and very dark... Is there someone that worked out the best settings for this scanner, the Canon Canoscan FB630 Ui?

Re: Canon Canoscan FB630 Ui
Support for Canon hardware is patchy or, more correctly I think, Canon support for Linux is zero.
Some info is here:

Hmmmm... In that thread, people have problems to get the scanner working alltogether, but that is not my problem: it scans fine. The output just is not what it should be, dark and far too red...Comment

Re: Canon Canoscan FB630 Ui
I'm not sure about the config options that come with xsane. However Skanlite (a sane frontend for kde4) might have the functions you seek.
Take a look here:

Thanks for the link to Skanlite. The options mentioned seem to be more applicable to my problem with the Canon scanner, so I will definitely give Skanlite a try!Comment

Re: Canon Canoscan FB630 Ui
Your tip proved to be very valuable!!
I set the analog range to 18 and the gamma correction to 1.8, and I got a very acceptable scan!
Thanks again!!Comment

Glad it worked.
Would you be so kind as to mark the title of the thread "solved" as it might just help someone else?
