I've also successfully used a modified Bochs (Open Source PC emulator)
installation to do scanning traces on Linux. See

Subject: [sane-devel] Minor issue with SANE standard
Message-ID: 200512191705.46131.ro...@users.sourceforge.net

This is for the people involved in developing and documenting the SANE 
standard. 

When I was getting familiar with SANE, I read the latest standard (version 
1.03). A very well written standard, IMHO. I just had one little issue (yeah, 
I'm being pedantic, it's a personality flaw 8^), with the formula for c in 
section 4.3.8 (page 29).

First, the formula for c when d = 1 is given as:

ceiling(B * n / 8)

Technically, this is correct, because the formula is an inequality, setting a 
lower bound on the value of c. But as written, this formula gives a lower 
value for the lower bound than if it were written as:

B * ceiling(n / 8)

Consider an example with d = 1, n = 3, B = 3. The original formula gives a 
value of ceiling(3 * 3 / 8) = ceiling(9 / 8) = ceiling(1.125) = 2. The new 
formula gives 3 * ceiling(3 / 8) = 3 * ceiling (0.375) = 3 * 1 = 3.

Hello,

what you can do is to make the scanner under windows, record all the 
I/O 
flowing through parallel port, then try to understand it so that you can 
write a backend doing the same. 
This takes time, and for parallel port scanners, you are almost alone 
since 
the protocol used differ from one scanner model to another.
If you still feel like doing it I can send you a custom VxD (win 98/win 
me 
only) that set hardware breakpoint on parallel port to log all in/out into a 
file. Since it does file access in ring 0, it has some stability issues. But 
it proved usefull enough to record the data (typical log is ~ 30 MB) I needed 
to analyse Umax 610P and 1220P protocols.

Regards,
Stef

 Sorry for disturbing, but I would like to know if there are someone
 with experience in Agfa SnapScan 1212p (parallel). Or some place to
 go. 

I just got the following mail about this scanner. As I don't have such
a device, please contact the author of this mail if there are any
questions.

Bye,

Subject: agfa snapscan 1212P to be in action

Hello Henning Meier-Geinitz!

I was to prove Agfa SnapScan 1212P on Mandriva 2006
And scanner work!

Tryout this scanner with plustek driver.
To be in action.

/etc/sane.d/dll.conf
plustek_pp.conf

/etc/sane.d/plustek_pp.conf
[direct]
device 0x378
device parport0
option lampOff 300
option warmup 15
option IOffOnEnd 1

/etc/sane.d/saned.conf
plustek_pp.conf

scanimage -L
device `plustek_pp:parport0' is a Plustek 9636P+/Turbo parallel port=20
flatbed scanner

Less refinement possible need.
