[sane-devel] epson backend for the Stylus CX4800
Johannes Meixner jsm...@suse.de writes: 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 ...

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 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206428#c3 Kind Regards Johannes Meixner -- SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstrasse 5 Mail: jsm...@suse.de 90409 Nuernberg, GermanyWWW: http://www.suse.de/

[sane-devel] new to the list
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
