Seems to me that the hp-backend can do a workaround, but not worth for
daily use. Could be that the HP ScanJet 4100 C is a little bit
problematic concerning USB in certain environments. BTW, did you try to
connect the scanner directly to an USB-connector on the back of the PC ?
I am giving up
Hello,
I assume that there is a problem with the communication with that
scanner. The backend tries to identify the scanner by inquiring various
settings. And if the backend does not get the expected answers from it
(Escape-sequences with defined arguments) it will not make use of that
scanner. I
Bill,
I just tried the ScanJet 4100 C with an OpenSuse 10.3 on a 64 Bit
machine without problems. On Suse 10.1 32 Bit the scanner was not
detected by the USB-layer because of error messages like
Feb 10 11:08:26 capella kernel: usb 1-9: new full speed USB device using
ohci_hcd and address 14

Bill,
in case of the failure no data was received from the scanner. The
backend then retries to read the requested data again after waiting 0.1
seconds. You can try to increase the number of retries to see if this helps:
export SANE_HP_RDREDO=20
xsane hp
This will do 20 retries (2 seconds in
can you get a debug log, after a fresh boot of the scanner and the
machine, by running the following all on one line:
SANE_DEBUG_HP=255 scanimage -L 2hp4100.log
then post hp4100.log back to the list. i've cc'd the backend author,
he might have some ideas.
