Well, the actual conversion may happen physically IN the scanner it self, or
the driver may take the three channels, and do it on the host
computer...either works for my point, which is that 1) B&W is actually
scanned as RGB, as that is all the scanner CAN do, unless you have a
Leafscan, and 2) that it uses a "canned" mix, that you can't adjust,
typically.

Unfortunately, I don't know Vuescan at all, so I can't say anything about
it.  There are those far more versed in Vuescan than I, in fact, I rarely
even spell it right ;-)
