Ok, Allan, thanks for your kind present ;-)

AFAIK, (for MP610 at least), different resolution on x and y axis are
always rejected
by the scanner (tested it already).
The Windows driver (MP610's) always use same x & y, and you cannot
specify different
x/y values, only _one_ value can be entered as dpi parameter in Canon's
driver form.

So the good question now: why does Canon specify resolutions of a x 2a,
if you can
only use a x a ?

If someone's got a clue ...
