this sounds like epjitsu. there is also a checksum byte that follows.

[sane-devel] Canon 8800F infrared scan

You are right. I wrote a custom driver which does IR (well, kind of;
that is my problem) and at the same time talking with Gernot about the
SANE 8800F driver. As often suggested a custom driver is easier when
exploring a unknown scanner but the solution may later be transportable
into SANE. Need that solution first.

Enno




[sane-devel] Canon 8800F infrared scan

2010-03-27 Thread Enno Fennema
I am scanning negatives on a Canon scanner, both normal RGB and then
infrared. The alignment of visible dark (light after inversion) patches
in rgb and the IR patches is poor and varies in a for me unpredictable
way from patch to patch.

Would like to get in touch with anyone having similar results or
suggestions or even solutions.

Regards,
Enno

well, then I would start with windows snoops of the IR in action, and
make sure you are sending the same commands.

Uhm- how are you scanning IR in sane with an unsupported scanner?

Yes, the problem should be here:
The log shows that the requested scan size is 2490x3480, with a
resolution of 300dpi, that is 8,3"x11,6"
Try with changing the values in the scanner struct.

Attached is an image extracted from your log. mostly calibration
scans, and I dont know if the dimensions are correct. Can you write
the letters 'RGB', each in the correct color, in the upper left corner
of a paper, and get a log of a low resolution color scan of that area?

haha- I think you meant- 'will you help me?' :)

try to get a log of the scanner being plugged in and turned on. I want
to see the firmware upload. I bet those commands are the same.
