[sane-devel] DIN-A3 Scanners supported by SANE
Hi, Andreas Piening wrote: I need to develop a linux-based copier-scanner solution for a library. For this system I need a DIN-A3 Scanner working with LINUX and therefor supported by SANE. I've looked at the supported devices list for the Scanners I know like the Microtek ScanMaker 9800XL or the Mustek P3600 Pro but they are not supported. Is there a DIN-A3 Scanner out there which is supported by a SANE-Backend? If so, how good does it work? If not, is someone working on that? Is it a hard work or is it possible to do this on my own in measurable time? All Avision A3 and Avision based OEM devices should be supported and work perfectly. I have not yet had many Duplex ADF feeders, but e.g. the AV220 (but only A4 sheetfeed, just as an example) is fully supported; scanning both sides at once: http://www.exactcode.de/oss/avision Have fun, -- René Rebe - Rubensstr. 64 - 12157 Berlin (Europe / Germany) http://www.exactcode.de | http://www.exactcode.de/t2 +49 (0)30 255 897 45

This is specific to that distribution. Here, you obviously are not getting people who run Fedora and know how this is done on that distribution, and feel like answering the question. So ask where it makes sense you'd get an answer. Not loading a kernel module should be pretty straight forward if one knows how the distribution loads it. I remember that problem. I don't remember the fix. Because I stopped using Fedora as soon as I possibly could. As far as I know, Rene has made it pretty clear he doesn't want to use hpusbscsi with the avision driver. He prefers libusb.

I am sending a query to a Fedora list. What distribution did you switch to? How do you find it in comparison to Fedora?

If I remember correctly, duplex scanning is not (yet?) working. But I'm pretty sure that we can make it work with some effort. It's just that the demand for fully supporting this scanner was not that big. Karl Heinz On Jan 1, 2005, at 11:52 AM, Andreas Piening wrote: Hi Karl Heinz, thank you very much for your quick answer! I think this scanner model will suit my needs. The Scanner comes with an integrated duplex unit in the scanner-cover like I saw on the EPSON Website. Is the duplex-unit usable? Assuming there is a A4 Paper in the duplex-tray is it possible to activate the duplex unit to scan both sides of the paper automatically? If the standard-frontend does not support it (as I think) is it possible to add such a command with modifications on the cvs-code? Maybe you never thought about that because you're just using it as a scanner but since the scanner have this unit, it would be a waste as it is so useful in a professional environment.

It's not cheap, but it's also built a lot sturdier than your average desktop scanner.

Hi Thomas, I had the same problem with my SuSE 9.2 distribution. Recompiling the kernel without hpusbscsi might help. I left the kernel unchanged but entered the hpusbscsi driver into /etc/hotplug/blacklist. Maybe there is something similar to that in Feodora. Greetings, Jens. 1. hpusbscsi vs libusb. sane-find-scanner finds the scanner at libusb:002:004. The hardware browser and scanimage -L in root mode finds `avision:/dev/sg2' is a Hewlett-Packard ScanJet 7400c flatbed scanner. In the past, I bypassed this problem by removing the hpusbscsi module and putting something about libusb into fstab. However, I was never able to stop the system from loading hpusbscsi whenever I rebooted and I don't remember seeing an answer to my queries about this. Is it still necessary to remove hpusbscsi? Is there a way to fix this problem so that the fix will survive rebooting? Is there a central place to find the procedure necessary to do this, or do I have to search through old posts to the mailing list?
