[sane-devel] Fujitsu backend questions
Hello list, I have some questions about my fujitsu FI-4120C... (using the fujitsu = backend): - The scanner lamp is always on. From what I have heard, that is a Bad = Thing because it will shorten the lamp's lifetime... If this is correct, = then how can I turn off the lamp? Is there some magic hidden command to = do that? - Is there some way to make the scanner recognize the physical papersize = and scan only that size? Right now I have to select between A4 / A5 = paper format... If i use A4 then i know that the whole paper will always = be scanned.. but if i scan a lot of A5 then i want to scan only A5 = because it it twice as fast as A4 now when i mix A4 and the smaller = A5, I have to change settings all the time... If I use adfscan then I = have to set it to A4 (the largest format) but then i loose a lot of = speed... A 'papersize=3Dauto' feature would be nice... is there some way = to do this with the current backend? Thanks! /Mattias

no on both questions i think. there is a scsi command to set a timer on the lamp, but the backend does not send this command. should not be too hard to add. i have not investigated auto paper sizing, but it seems that it would only work for width, and would involve perhaps taking a single scanline at full width, and then determine most likely window params from that. this would be a bit more work. allan On Mon, 15 Nov 2004, Mattias Kregert wrote: Hello list, I have some questions about my fujitsu FI-4120C...

There is an option 'sleeptimer'. I think it's the time in minutes(?) until the lamp is turned off. I've not tried it with the 4120. - Is there some way to make the scanner recognize the physical papersize and scan only that size? Right now I have to select between A4 / A5 paper format...

I don't know about the 4120, but the big brothers of that scanner are able to do a paper length detection. It works fine with TWAIN but I've not implemented it in SANE, yet. -- Oliver
[sane-devel] Need Driver for Mustek Paragon 1200 SP Pro , SCSI, running Mac OS 9.2
Hello, I have a Dual 450Mhz PowerPC G4 Macintosh, currently running Mac OS 9.2 I have a Mustek Paragon 1200 SP Pro, SCSI, scanner. Mustek is not supporting Mac OS 9.2, Does SANE have a driver I can use? If there is a driver available, please direct me to it. Also direct me to the step by step directions on downloading and installing it on my system. I would really appreciate any detailed help I can get. Thanks in advance, hope to hear from someone soon. Imhotep A. Ptah P.S. I am willing to contact anyone by phone if required.

[sane-devel] Error during device I/O
I'm stuck on this one. $ scanimage -v -y 279.4 --mode lineart --resolution 300 \ --batch-scan=yes --batch=aaa--%02d--line300.pnm Scanning -1 pages, incrementing by 1, numbering from 1 Scanning page 1 scanimage: sane_start: Error during device I/O scanimage: read 0 bytes in total Scanned page 1. (scanner status = 9) The debugging output is at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=272304, which is (a href=http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=272304;here/a). Any ideas on how I can fix this or figure out what's going on? This is completely stopping the single most important purpose of my computer, and my scanner has been idle for weeks. Thanks.
