Hi, I hope you don't mind that I CCed sane-devel.

Mine has one too. I downloaded the driver for the SnapScan 1212P WITHOUT power switch. It installs a scandrv.sys. This one as well contains CodeView debug information. I inspected it with "strings -a". A small list of interesting strings: P17ColorModeRegister P518ColorModeRegister P535ColorModeRegister P539ColorModeRegister P56ColorModeRegister P97ColorModeRegister D:\SCANDRV\DRIVER\VER02\NT4\98001\AGFA\..\asic.c On the other hand Sane 1.0.15 contains: plustek-pp_p9636.c:static UShort P17ColorModeRegister[] = { plustek-pp_p9636.c:static UShort P518ColorModeRegister[] = { plustek-pp_p9636.c:static UShort P535ColorModeRegister[] = { plustek-pp_p9636.c:static UShort P539ColorModeRegister[] = { plustek-pp_p9636.c:static UShort P56ColorModeRegister[] = { plustek-pp_p9636.c:static UShort P97ColorModeRegister[] = { plustek-pp_detect.c: DBG( DBG_LOW, "Adjust for 98001 ASIC\n"); So, well, I think this is enough to assume that the AGFA SnapScan 1212P without power switch is a rebranded Plustek.

It's an option in xsane's standard option window. If it's not present I suggest to upgrade to sane-backends 1.0.17 before doing further tests. /Oliver
