OPTIONS (GENERAL)

       Scan destinations:
              -s<dest_list>  or  --dest=<dest_list>  where  <dest_list> is a comma separated list
              containing one or more of: 'file' , 'viewer', 'editor', 'pdf', or 'print'. Use only
              commas between values, no spaces.

       Scan mode:
              -m<mode> or --mode=<mode>. Where <mode> is 'gray'*, 'color' or 'lineart'.

       Scanning resolution:
              -r<resolution_in_dpi>           or           --res=<resolution_in_dpi>           or
              --resolution=<resolution_in_dpi> where 300 is default.

       Image resize:
              --resize=<scale_in_%> (min=1%, max=400%, default=100%)

       Image contrast:
              -c=<contrast> or --contrast=<contrast> The contrast range  varies  from  device  to
              device.

       Image brightness:
              -b=<brightness>  or  --brightness=<brightness>  The  brightness  range  varies from
              device to device.

       ADF mode:
              --adf (Note, only PDF output is supported when using the ADF) --duplex or --dup for
              duplex scanning using ADF.

OPTIONS (SCAN AREA)

       Specify the units for area/box measurements:
              -t<units>  or  --units=<units>  where  <units>  is 'mm'*, 'cm', 'in', 'px', or 'pt'
              ('mm' is default).

       Scan area:
              -a<tlx>,<tly>,<brx>,<bry>   or   --area=<tlx>,<tly>,<brx>,<bry>   Coordinates   are
              relative  to  the upper left corner of the scan area.  Units for tlx, tly, brx, and
              bry are specified by -t/--units (default is 'mm').  Use only commas between values,
              no spaces.

       Scan box:
              --box=<tlx>,<tly>,<width>,<height>  tlx  and  tly  coordinates  are relative to the
              upper left corner of the scan area.  Units for tlx,  tly,  width,  and  height  are
              specified  by  -t/--units  (default  is  'mm').  Use only commas between values, no
              spaces.

       Top left x of the scan area:
              --tlx=<tlx> Coordinates are relative to the upper left corner  of  the  scan  area.
              Units are specified by -t/--units (default is 'mm').
