Good point.  It is milliseconds - your questions will be best
answered in "/usr/src/lib/libscsi/scsi.c", the source for the
library.

It will help a lot to have someone not familiar with the code go into
that man page and fill in the holes.

We must be looking at two different drivers - I did an alta vista search
for "Mustek 6000CX" and got a bunch of hits for a "muscan" application.

I'm looking at:

> muscan-1.1.5.taz

available on sunsite.  It starts out:

>   muscan - scanner driver for Mustek Paragon 6000CX scanner
>   Copyright (C) 1995 Torsten Eichner

The function I sent you off-list should plug right in to that app 
and get you debugging - maybe you can then send it on to Torsten.
