Hi Georg, I just completed the backend for the canon_lide70, which is very, very closely related to the 600f.
You know that from the site of Juergen Ernst, and I wrote about that in my sane-canon_lide70 man page: https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/-/blob/master/doc/sane-canon_lide70.man So I may be the person you are looking for. But I am afraid that I can start working on this only after the summer. I live in the Netherlands. What do you think?

Simple things first: - I'm paying shipment costs; I thus prefer shipments to Germany/Europe in favor of more expensive options - It's a hardware donation - no strings attached - which goes both ways, i.e. I don't pay for your working hours - You don't have to send it back - If you are interested please include some 'proof' for being a SANE developer in your mail Although the scanner is pretty old, it should be in pretty good condition, i.e. not much used. I can't notice any scratches. The scanner was last attached to a Windows XP machine in 2013 or so, where it worked. It's relatively compact, it can also be stored vertically. It comes with a film adapter unit. You need a standard USB mini connector cable and the device is also powered through USB. The case also reads K10291. Currently, SANE doesn't support this scanner: http://www.sane-project.org/sane-mfgs.html There is some preliminary reverse engineered information available (last update 2017): http://www.juergen-ernst.de/info_sane.html Vendor information: https://www.canon-europe.com/support/consumer_products/products/scanners/lide_series/canoscan_lide_600f.html?type=manuals&language=en Best regards Georg -- '/usr/share/doc/glibc/BUGS: No such file or directory' 2016, `dnf update` on Fedora 23, glibc has no bugs ...
