[sane-devel] Seeking advice on scanner purchase.
I have had my second break down of an HP scanner in three years so I have now decided to get a cheap, however, all the newer ones are almost all not supported according to SANE's list of supported scanners. I've looked at Canon's CanoScan LIDE 25 which was the cheapest I could find with a status of at least good. Are there any gotchas for this scanner that I should be aware of? -- Erik.
[sane-devel] is there a virtual scanner for image files?
On Fri, 28 Dec 2007 20:14:31 +0100 Peter Rap The application is Adobe Acrobat Pro (any volunteers for modifying it ? ;) ). The thing is Acrobat can process scanned books or brochures oops :) in a nice way (i.e automatically remove the middle shadow between the pages, auto-align rotated pages, do OCR and add text version of the scanned document to the .pdf file it creates, etc. ). My plan was to feed the image files to sane, then use a sane-to-twain bridge (which I didn't know! Yes, I am aware of the pnm back-end, but from the man page of sane and sane-pnm I learned close to nothing (not even how to use that back- end). Does the convert utility convert multi-page zipped tiffs to pnm file(s)? If not, which program can I use instead? you should use tiffsplit to split the files and then tifftopnm . the backend should be easy to use, try with scanimage --device 'pnm:0' --help the backend is not compiled by default, youll have to enable it in the makefile. -- Best regards, Alessandro Zummo, Tower Technologies - Torino, Italy http://www.towertech.it

[sane-devel] No result with canon LiDE 90
Hello,
I have no result with LiDE 90. I take sane-backends CVS, and genesys in
experimental branch. Modified genesys_devices.c as followed.
scanimage -l gives me :
device `genesys:libusb:001:019' is a Canon LiDE 90 flatbed scanner
but scanimage -d genesys:libusb:001:019 toto.pnm
did noting !! grrr
Another question : is it possible to built only genesys backend (option
in configure ???) because building all backend is very long.
Thank you

[sane-devel] How to define xsane printer
You have to enter the command line option with which you can print a file. On most systems this is lp or lpr. If you want to specify a special printer (if you have more than one or no default printer) then you have to add the correct option, e.g. lpr -P laserjet I don`t know what command line option your system offers, thats something that you have to find out. Best regards Oliver Am Montag, den 24.12.2007, 09:21 +0100 schrieb Julien Michielsen: Would like to define my printer for the xsane copy mode, for being able to make a fotocopy with my scanner.
