Hi I am a software engineer. I am not very familiar with SANE. I have download sane-backends-git20130408, and I found many scanners in backend folder. What should I do if I want my scanner to support SANE. Thanks, looking forward to your reply. Mingxia -- next part -- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

[sane-devel] HP N6350
On 11/04/2013 21:53, Wouter Verhelst wrote: Hi folks, As I blogged recently[1], I own an HP ScanJet N6350 that TTBOMK does not work with SANE, and of which the Windows software is just crap. I'd like to see if I can reverse engineer the protocol (USB and/or network). This should at the very least be possible, as I'm already running Windows inside a VM; so it should just be a matter of using wireshark on the USB and/or network interface. Now I do think I have a general idea of how to reverse engineer a protocol, but I've never actually done anything of the sort before. Is there something I should pay specific attention to when doing this sort of thing? Additionally, once I've figured out the protocol (or have gathered enough data), is there somewhere I could send it? I don't think I have the understanding of the SANE internals to do write the driver myself... [1] http://grep.be/blog/en/computer/hardware/dear_hp Hello, what does sane-find-scanner reports (when run as root) for your scanner ? The N6310 is reported to be genesys logic based, and it seems close to your model. Regards, Stef

[sane-devel] SANE backend for Canon PIXMA MG8250
Hi Volker, If you want to read the program and backend version use: 'scanimage -V'. You can do a test scan with 'scanimage test.pnm'. But it's easier to use a graphic frontend like xsane. If your scanner still won't work, I need a log file from scanning a small area of approx. 5mm x 5mm @ 75dpi with: 'SANE_DEBUG_PIXMA=11 scanimage -x 5 -y5 2 pixma.log test.pnm'.

Do you simply start the VirtualBox, or do you start also inside the CanoScan device driver or similar? Hi, It's a 32-bit WinXP virtual machine with Canon's drivers installed inside, running on a 64-bit Linux (Debian Wheezy) host. The procedure is: 1. Plug in the scanner (physically). (Scanner is recognized by the host Linux kernel. No external signs of life - lamp does not turn on, motor does not move, etc.) 2. Run scanimage -L (on the host). (Still no signs of life, error on usbio_DetectLM983x) 3. Start VBox, boot up the virtual machine normally. 4. Connect the scanner to the virtual machine (from Virtualbox's menu). (Scanner starts moving, calibrating (?) itself, etc.) 5. Disconnect the scanner from the virtual machine (but leave it connected physically to the host), power the VM down. 6. Run scanimage -L again (on the host). (Finds the scanner quickly, no errors.) Also tried installing 32-bit libsane and sane-utils (1.0.22 from the i386 repo) - no difference. Haven't tried it with a full 32-bit system yet.
[sane-devel] scanbd on Raspberry Pi Connection Failed system_bus_socket

[sane-devel] SANE backend for Canon PIXMA MG8250
Hi Rolf, first of all, will the testing procedure be a matter of interest for this mailing list or should it be a dialogue between the two of us? I'll do it both ways for a start. I report my testing steps here and send you the files in question by private email. I forgot to mention: my OS is 64 Bit openSUSE 12.3. And I have installed scangearmp, the scanner program from the Canon website. I can scan with it, but the one and only possible scan target is save to a file, though there are three targets to choose from, print, display, and OCR (all of which I cannot find a way to configure).
