Re: [Cooker] scannerdrake project: microtek X6usb
Roger, Thanks to Bernd Schroeder and Karsten Festag, the Microtek Scanmaker X6usb is on the supported list at: http://www.mostang.com/sane/sane-backends.html $xscanimage microtek2:/dev/sg1 detects and will allow me to conduct one or two scans, but dies upon me changing the resolution and color depth. I have to admit that I just found the man page at: http://www.mostang.com/sane/man/sane-microtek2.5.html After reading it, I see that I should create log files and send them to Karsten. I appreciate your help Roger. This does look like a backend problem and I will start working with Karsten to improve it. --John On Tue, 2002-05-28 at 23:46, Roger wrote: just an fyi, dunno if this model is support under sane (but my astra umax 2200 scsi/usb is). try either xscanimage or using scanimage manully: xscanimage umax:/dev/usb/scanner0 scanimage umax:/dev/usb/scanner0 or yours would be something like: xscanimage mustek:/dev/usb/scanner0 On Tue, 2002-05-28 at 21:34, John Yarger wrote: I wanted to pass on my configuration experiences regarding scannerdrake to the developer of the project to aid with the auto-detection.

just an fyi, dunno if this model is support under sane (but my astra umax 2200 scsi/usb is). try either xscanimage or using scanimage manully: xscanimage umax:/dev/usb/scanner0 scanimage umax:/dev/usb/scanner0 or yours would be something like: xscanimage mustek:/dev/usb/scanner0 On Tue, 2002-05-28 at 21:34, John Yarger wrote: I wanted to pass on my configuration experiences regarding scannerdrake to the developer of the project to aid with the auto-detection.
