I have got an 'UMAX-UG80' flatbed scanner, 300 dpi, 256 gray
levels. The interface is a simple SCSI controller.

The MS-Windows software which came with the scanner uses an MS-DOS device
driver which seems to understand some kind of standard scanner
language.
What commands does the scanner understand and where can I get a 
description of these commands ?
Can I get real grayscale output from the scanner ? (The software
gives me dithered b&w pictures, but not true grayscale).

If possible reply by e-mail to the address stated below.

Thanks,  Martin.
