[sane-devel] I want to test the Sane backend for Canon Pixma MG3670 Multi-functional Scanner-Printer I have

2016-02-10 Thread Susmita/Rajib Bandopadhyay
It was so dumb of me not to notice ! When I scanned the folder I was
laughing crazily as I found that the file Makefile was not executable!

Subject: Re: [sane-devel] I want to test the Sane backend for Canon
Pixma MG3670 Multi-functional Scanner-Printer I have


Then I went inside of the downloaded sane-backend directory and did:
knoppix@Microknoppix:~/Downloads/sane-backends$ make && sudo make install
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

I repeated and found the same result even in su.

Although there are makefile.in and makefile.am.

What do I need to do?

I hope I am not irritating you.

Another input, Sir!

Kindly inform the programmers that the Makefile makes installation
files for all Printers of the Universe.


Kindly advise them to make them printer specific.

The general Makefile eats a lot of CPU cycles and wastes awful lot of
time. I would have done it myself had I looked into the file earlier!

Just to search for the Printer string and remove everything else in the lines:
BACKENDS
BACKEND_CONFS_ENABLED
BACKEND_LIBS_ENABLED

Please have this input included in the README.linux file.

Please note that I used:

  ./configure BACKENDS="canon" PRELOADABLE_BACKENDS="canon" to preload
backend for canon.
Yet in output : I don't see preloadable backend.

What is the logic behind this?

Documentation usually entails the manual pages and other files like
the readme (there are news, install, changelog, release information
and other files in most software).
I would start by reading the manual pages for the sane project and the
various backends.
Try "man sane" and read to the end, there in the "See Also" section
you will find more man pages. Some URLs are also in there for
reference.

Best regards,
Gernot Hassenpflug

SANE is a scanner project, not a printer project (that would be
gutenprint or some other project).
/../
If you read the instructions, you will see that using configure with
BACKENDS= will create backends just for the
listed backends.
This might be useful to put in the readme, but people should also read
the general manual pages, the readme is not a substitute for them.

Gernot Hassenpflug

Sorry, Gernot! The word would be 'Scanner'.

I hope you remember me from the Umax Astra project in Debian :-)
Although it is natural not to ;-)

Yes, I have read the README file inside and found the place you mentioned:

./configure BACKENDS="epson2 fujitsu"
./configure BACKENDS="epson2 futjisu" PRELOADABLE_BACKENDS="epson2"

Thank you!

I am relieved now that you are here!

Thank you, Sir, for advice against Frontends.

For your earlier email, please don't underestimate my intent, Sir!

I have only left out SCSI. I couldn't go past the Frontend installation.

Now I will try the backend and proceed from there.

Thank you, Sir!

Hello,
Are you really reading any of the documentation? This is not IRC, so
you can't expect a loose conversation.
There is no such backend. Please read the documentation and the README
files to find out what you need to compile.

My apologies, from your messages it was not clear to me that you had
written a driver.
In that case, what you want to do is integrate your driver in SANE backends?
However, there is already a driver for this scanner family (MG3600),
so how about if you test that instead first?
It is the pixma backend, so you can just compile that backend, and
test, reporting how especially the high-resolution scans work (above
600 dpi, do you get proper image, or if not, how it looks).

Gernot Hassenpflug

Hi Rajib,

You don't need to install Sane frontends. You can use scanimage from the
backends installation or any other frontend, e.g. xsane.

Please also start a gui frontend from the command line (the same

Your scanner should scan pages up to 600dpi out of the box. What's about

Please report your results.

Dear Sirs,

I have always had a problem with xsane. The only time I had seen xsane
work was with HP multi-functional scanner printer.

I can volunteer to test the xscane backend for my printer. Information
collected from:
http://www.sane-project.org/sane-backends.html

Tell me how to go about it.

Regards,
Rajib
Mysore

Hi Rajib,

You don't need to install Sane frontends. You can use scanimage from the
backends installation or any other frontend, e.g. xsane.

Cheers,
