 That's correct. At least sane-find-scanner says: chip=GL842.
 Do you have a physical access to the device?

Yes, I have one. I have some code also, tried to set up registers
based on Windows USB snoop logs (which I could not interpret easily),
but initialization does not yet work. Replaying the Windows commands
to the scanner does work though.

I intend to start again, using the latest GL841 code as a basis.



Have you found time to look at that?





Thank you.

Hi Gernot.

 I tried to get a LiDE90 to work some time ago, but did not continue
 because of time pressure.
 I am about ready to try again (Genesys GL842 IIRC).

 That's correct. At least sane-find-scanner says: chip=GL842.

Yes, I have one. I have some code also, tried to set up registers
based on Windows USB snoop logs (which I could not interpret easily),
but initialization does not yet work. Replaying the Windows commands
to the scanner does work though.



One more note ... I forgot to mention, that we would be happy even

for a minimal support. If you're able to scan anything with replaying

an unknown sequence representing let say a color scanning with

resolution 1200 DPI and lower contrast, it would be a very good start.

We can post-process the result in image editors.



I intend to start again, using the latest GL841 code as a basis.



If you have sniffed data from several different tries with different
configuration, I could possibly look at them too and help with the
identification.? Depends on you.

Thanks,
Jaromir.

 Hello guys.

 I'd like to know whether by any chance someone's currently working on the
 mentioned two scanners (UMAX Astra 4700  Canon LiDE 90).
 None of them seem to be marked as supported in the list of scanners,
 however it seems few guys at least tried to make them work in the past.

Hi,
I tried to get a LiDE90 to work some time ago, but did not continue
because of time pressure.
I am about ready to try again (Genesys GL842 IIRC).

 I'm willing to collect any data and test diagnostic drivers
 in order to make at least one of these working. Our non-profit
 organization got these scanners as a gift, but as we don't own
 any M$ software, we cannot use them.

 Even when I have no experience with the SANE source code,
 I have quite a lot of experience with hardware design and software
 development. I could try to beat the scanners by myself with some
 hints from you, if you're willing to help me.

Hi,

If not, I can grant you an access to a devel system where the

scanner is connected. I can also pre-install any linux distribution

you want. No problem with that. Online comunication is not

a problem at all (IRC, Jabber, ...). Just tell me ...


?

Great! If you know about any way how we could encourage your effort,

then let us know. We'll do our best :]

And of course, consider us to be your humblest testers ...
