The problem is (probably) not so much the programming, but knowing the machine codes. Unless someone does a good job of bus traffic sniffing, it is not possible to do much.

Is there a tool for searching the Archives for info about scanner chips, etc.? The sane-devel mailing list has a search engine. However, ususally I put all information about a scanner on the scanner's web page. But I may have missed something. Bye, Henning

Hello, Is there a tool for searching the Archives for info about scanner chips, etc.? I also an owner of the 4200f and I searched for information of the Chips inside this scanner a while ago. According to this site the chips are: http://www.sane-project.org/unsupported/canon-4200f.html chip 1 ESMT M12L16161A- 7T LNS1P43ZE 0503 This is the DRAM module used inside this scanner: http://www.esmt.com.tw/DB/manager/upload/M12L16161A.pdf chip 2 610800017919 D1 0521 TH07 XHHL7GGG I didn't find anything about this chip. chip 3 WM WM8196SCDS 55AMPBX This scanner uses a Wolfson Electronics WM8196SCDS chip as ADC. http://www.wolfson.co.uk/products/digital_imaging/WM8196/ There is also a datasheet available: http://www.wolfsonmicro.com/uploads/documents/8196.pdf chip 4 ST E L6219DS 9913M V6 MYS 99 507 This is the controller of the scanner motor: http://www.allegromicro.com/datafile/6219.pdf I also made some logfiles with USB-Snoopy with different settings inside the scanner software, but I am not a real developer. Maybe someone could integrate this information on the site I noticed above. Alfred Egger

Hello, Dave or some one else, do you have usb sniffer logs of this scanner somewhere? I would like to see the log of the boot of the scanner, since that would give some hint of what the controller chip is (or is not). In particular I could help you exclude the M5623 :), the one in the predecessor 3200f. With best regards, Lauri Pirttiaho Oulu Finland ...
