[sane-devel] Scanner DocketPORT 468

2011-05-26 Thread Enma Ai 
Hi,

I'm trying to get to work scanner DocketPORT 468.
I already know it is not supported and I have found no discussions related,
however I'm giving it a try as the  genesys  backend  provides  support for
scanners based on the Genesys Logic GL646 and GL841 chips and I have read in
a discussion that GL842 is essentially the same as the GL841.

My OS is: Linux version 2.6.35-28-generic (buildd at rothera) (gcc version
4.4.5 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.4.4-14ubuntu5) )

I have (sane-backends) 1.0.21; backend version 1.0.21.

When connecting the scanner I get:

:dmesg
[ 3960.456090] usb 2-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address
9


:sane-find-scanner -v
found USB scanner (vendor=0x1dcc [Document Capture Technologies Inc.],
product=0x4817 [SimpleScan], chip=GL842) at libusb:002:008


:scanimage -V
scanimage (sane-backends) 1.0.21; backend version 1.0.21

But:

scanimage -L
No scanners were identified.


Any suggestions? Should I just forget about it and look for another scanner?
:)

Thanks and regards
Enma :)

[sane-devel] Scanner DocketPORT 468

2011-05-26 Thread Daniel Elm 
The scanner should probably work since the backend says it works with the
Visioneer XP100r3/RoadWarrior/Xerox Travel Scanner, which I believe are
rebadged versions of the same model.

[sane-devel] Scanner DocketPORT 468

2011-05-26 Thread Enma Ai 
Hi,

I have followed the indications from this site to recompile the backends:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckIfScannerIsClone

sane-find-scanner -v -v (To identify Id of the vendor, product and chipset)

device descriptor of 0x1dcc/0x4817 at 002:004 (Document Capture
Technologies Inc. SimpleScan)
bLength   18
bDescriptorType   1
bcdUSB2.00
bDeviceClass  255
bDeviceSubClass   255
bDeviceProtocol   255
bMaxPacketSize0   64
*idVendor  0x1DCC
idProduct 0x4817*
bcdDevice 3.02
*iManufacturer 10 (Document Capture Technologies Inc.)
iProduct  11 (SimpleScan)*

...

trying to find out which USB chip is used
checking for GL84x ...
This USB chip looks like a *GL842* (result from sane-backends 1.0.21)
found USB scanner (vendor=0x1dcc [Document Capture Technologies Inc.],
product=0x4817 [SimpleScan], chip=GL842) at libusb:002:004



With the above information I found several possible compatible scanners with
chip GL841, even though this scanner has GL842 and it is not supported.

 /* GL841 devices */
  {0x04a7, 0x0474, visioneer_xp300_model},
  {0x04a7, 0x0494, visioneer_roadwarrior_model},
  {0x04a7, 0x049b, visioneer_xp100_r3_model},
  {0x04a7, 0x04ac, xerox_travelscanner_model},
  {0x04a9, 0x2213, canon_lide_50_model},
  {0x04a9, 0x221c, canon_lide_60_model},
  {0x07b3, 0x0900, plustek_3600_model},
  {0x0a17, 0x3210, pentax_dsmobile_600_model},
  {0x04f9, 0x2038, pentax_dsmobile_600_model}, /* clone, only usb id is
different */
  {0x0a82, 0x4800, syscan_docketport_485_model},
  {0x0a82, 0x4802, syscan_docketport_465_model},
  {0x0a82, 0x4803, syscan_docketport_665_model},
  {0x0a82, 0x480c, syscan_docketport_685_model},
  {0x1dcc, 0x4810, dct_docketport_487_model},
  {0x1dcc, 0x4812, syscan_docketport_467_model},


I have tried with all the docketport and the scanner is recognized only by
those with the same vendor id 0x1dcc:

//Different vendor id (for example 0x0a82, 0x4802,
syscan_docketport_465_model)
scanimage -L
No scanners were identified.

//Same vendor id: 0x1dcc
scanimage -L
device `genesys:libusb:002:007' is a DCT DocketPORT 487 flatbed scanner

But I get a warning and the scanner finally crashes:

scanimage image.pnm
  [genesys] WARNING: Your scanner is not fully supported or at least
  [genesys]  had only limited testing. Please be careful and
  [genesys]  report any failure/success to
  [genesys]  sane-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org. Please provide
as many
  [genesys]  details as possible, e.g. the exact name of your
  [genesys]  scanner and what does (not) work.
  ...

Only Docketport 467 worked and it got to scan, however the image was
completely black and when I tried to scan again the scanner wasn't
recognized any longer.

I will do some more tests with this model and I have also contact the
manufacturer just in case they have a linux driver available. If I finally
get it to scan I will post it.

Thanks for your help! :)

Hello,

in fact most of the scanners supported
