You hope ok. But I remember I told you op-code 11 should have problem.
Op-code 11 has been removed from the list the driver enforced direction.
This code is normally vendor-specific for processor devices but not for
scanner devices.
Your scanner uses this code with the reverse direction the driver
was expecting. So, you can consider it is a fix of the driver that fixes
something for your scanner too, so it is something like a double-fix. :)
