[sane-devel] epson backend for the Stylus CX4800

 Hello,

 a user reported to us that the Epson Stylus CX4800 (0x4b8/0x419)

Unless there is yet another USB product ID I've never heard of, I
think that should be 0x4b8/0x819.  At least, that's what's in
epkowa.desc ;-)

 works perfectly with the epson backend if the USB IDs are
 added to epson.conf, see
 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206428

 Up to now it seems only the epkowa backend (version 2.1.0)
 knows about this model, see
 http://www.sane-project.org/cgi-bin/driver.pl?manu=epsonmodel=cx4800

On a related note, I recently discovered that, even if you don't need
a binary-only non-free plugin, not all epkowa supported devices work
with the epson backend.  In my case, this happened with a PM-A750 (aka
Stylus Photo RX520/530).  I haven't really looked into it but if first
impressions are anything to go by it may have to do something with the
(not) sending of the ESC i command and the processing of its reply.

# Me goes back to work ...

Hope this helps,

You are right.
There was a typo of the user.
His Epson Stylus CX4800 has 0x4b8/0x819.
Thanks a lot for pointing out the error!

sane-find-scanner shows it as
vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0819 [USB2.0 MFP(Hi-Speed)]
note the user-friendly USB model string ;-)

For details (like lsusb -v for his scanner) see

[sane-devel] new to the list

2006-09-21 Thread James Newlin
Hello all,

I'm looking into creating a backend/driver for a EDT BizCardReader 900C USB 
2.0 card scanner.  It is using a SQ113C USB chip.  The vendor ID is 0xA53 
and device ID is 0x5001.   Any pointers or help would be greatly 
appreciated.  I do not know how much time I can devote to the creation of 
the new driver, but I am willing to try.  How would I know if it needs to be 
a low-level driver or not?

Thanks,

James
