Well, almost.  Due to a lack of time/resources to make it work
correctly, the IS11 support was removed at the last moment
before 3.2 shipped.  IS11 and a color Ricoh SCSI scanner will
be supported in a future release.  Unfortunately, the man
page didn't get updated to reflect this...

that your brains fall out. -- Stephen A. Kallis, Jr.
