[sane-devel] Microtek Slimscan C3 USB
Hi Josh, Henning is guessing right so please follow his advice. The C3's were buil= t in=20 different variations so I haven' yet a report if your particular model wo= rks=20 out of the box. But I think the chances are good because other C3's work=20 well. Please do your setup in these steps: -make the microtek kernel module recognize your scanner like Henning said= =2E -run sane-find-scanner; your scanner has to be reported, otherwise there = is=20 something wrong with your USB- or SCSI generic configuration -try your favourite scan program (most people prefer xsane) -in any case please make a logfile as described in the manpage sane-micro= tek2=20 and send it to me. If you have problems I can see some details in the=20 logfile.

Anyway I'm guessing a bit: Have a look at the manpage (sane-microtek2). The USB scanners are supported by the microtec kernel module. So if that scanner uses a SCSI-over-USB protocol it may work if you get it detected by the microtek driver. You'll need to add the vendor & product ids to drivers/usb/microtek.c. At least your scanner doesn't seem to be mentioned there. Please show us the output of cat /proc/bus/usb/devices when your scanner is plugged in. You may need to run "mount -t usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb /proc/bus/usb" if that file isn't there. Bye, Henning

I have a Slimscan C3 USB scanner. I see that SANE supports the C3 PARPORT, but nothing about USB. Is there a way to redirect to the USB port?
