I have a HP Scanjet6300c. sane-utils are the Version, that comes with Debian Lenny (1.0.19-23). I get an I/O error every time I use the scanimage withe the option --resolution 1200 (to be exact any resolution higher than 600). Using scanimage without option works any time and configuration Sometimes even seg Fault errors. I could replicate this indebendent from: - the hardeware (tried 4 different computers and two scanners of the same model) - with and without the "dumb-read" option in the hp.conf file - on SCSI and USB interface - (on a Suse 9.2 Machine)
Is there any hope to have this corrected when using sane-backends 1.0.20 ? And if, can I install the back-ends only, with the frontends still old version? Could I deliver any additional information, that might help to solve the Problem? Thanks Frank
