It maps Sane defines...

/usr/include/sane/sane.h:

������ ������SANE_UNIT_NONE = 0, ������ ������ ������ ������ /* the value is unit-less (e.g., # of scans) */
������ ������SANE_UNIT_PIXEL, ������ ������ ������ ������ ������ ������/* value is number of pixels */
������ ������SANE_UNIT_BIT, ������ ������ ������ ������ ������ ������ ������/* value is number of bits */
������ ������SANE_UNIT_MM, ������ ������ ������ ������ ������ ������ ������ /* value is millimeters */
������ ������SANE_UNIT_DPI, ������ ������ ������ ������ ������ ������ ������/* value is resolution in dots/inch */
������ ������SANE_UNIT_PERCENT, ������ ������ ������ ������ ������/* value is a percentage */
������ ������SANE_UNIT_MICROSECOND ������ ������ ������ /* value is micro seconds */

So apparently "ns" might be wrong, and dpi and mm might be switched even...

Aric?
