       Scan destinations:
              -s<dest_list>  or  --dest=<dest_list>  where  <dest_list> is a comma separated list
              containing one or more of: 'file'*,

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

       Scanning resolution:

       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').

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

       Bottom right x of the scan area:
