Hi, I've got a NeatDesk auto-sheet-feed scanner that is based on the GL843 and is unsupported in sane.? I've confirmed that it is GL843 by opening up the scanner and looking at the board.? It appears to me that there is currently no GL843 code/support in the genesys driver at all.? The closest I could find was Andreas Robinson's work on GL843 here:? http://github.com/andr345/gl843driver
Some info on this device: Vendor: Neat Model: NeatDesk ADF-070108 USB ID: 0x07b3/0x0f00 I went ahead and set up a Windows XP virtual machine and used Andreas' Linux tool to capture the USB request blocks data, which I've uploaded here:? http://transfer.11h.net/u/log.bin.gz I've used the "parsedump.pl" tool on the data file and uploaded it here: http://transfer.11h.net/u/neat.log.gz If anybody is able to make sense of this data and update the driver, I'd be more than happy to test it out :) Thank you.
