Title:
  Resolution control not working

Status in Simple Scan:

Bug description:

  "Firstly - congratulations for Simple Scan, which lives up to its name admirably!
  Xsane is no doubt wonderfully competent, but far too complicated for casual use.
  But I am having a problem with Simple Scan, in that I can't seem to get selected resolutions to have any effect.
  A typical A4 mainly-text document I am playing with, ends up as:
  165K when scanned & saved as text pdf at 75/150/300 or 600dpi...
  1.5MB when scanned & saved as text jpg at 75-600dpi
  2.2MB when scanned & saved as photo pdf or jpg at 75-600dpi.
  My Epson V200 scanner allows normal resolution selection with Xsane or with Epson's iscan application.
  Thanks for any suggestions!" - unquote.

  I started that thread in December 2010 & still have the same problem today.
  As a summary - the resolution control has absolutely no effect on the results.
  No error messages (unless I try 2400dpi) & nothing in simple-scan --debug >simple-scan.log
  I now have Simple Scan 2.32.0.1-0Ubuntu2 in Ubuntu 11.04.
  The scanner is an Epson Perfection V200 Photo & has normal resolution selection in XSane & Iscan.
  Thanks!
