[...] SANE includes many backends and a few frontends. There are also "external" frontends for sane backends and "external" backends for sane frontends. All frontends I know are scanimage, xscanimage, xsane, gimp (uses xscanimage or xsane), saned. VueScan is a different product with its own frontend and backend. VueScan and SANE are different products that do not talk each other. An example of an "external" sane backend is HPAIO, parts of the HP Linux Printing and Imaging System. Giuseppe

Hi, Yes, correct. I was using another email address. I did send a test message and went through fine. So, this is resolved and sorry for the mistake.

SANE provides backends (drivers) and frontends (applications). This division allows third parties to produce their own frontends (Xsane, quiteinsane) and facilitates network scanning. Vuescan is more monolithic, Windows style, though I believe it does use SANE backends for some scanners. Vuescan is aimed particularly at film scanning so supports a wider range of film scanners than SANE. > > Last, any good web resource for learning and preparing myself for > > scanning?

[sane-devel] Scanning Time Question]
Hi johannes, Yes, It is a big progect I have to work on. Pictures are all 35mm of set of 4 per negative. They are not ( unfortunately ) on a roll. Yes, writing a script would be super. I would have to learn this first. But, as for model, if Nikon LS 5000 is not supported I think I will choose Nikon LS 4000 (which by now is well supported) as also comes with a rebate which makes it affordable. As for application, because I am unable to run Nikon original software under Gentoo Linux, I was thinking of http://www.hamrick.com/ VueScan as offering the same and more features than what Nicon offers. Do you know anything about this or do you think gimps would be fine? Anything else to advice as application? As for format, I do not know yet. I assume it will be either jpeg or tiff. I think jpeg with a good resolution would be sufficient. It is not only for displaying on the monitor but also for prints. They have told me that nowadays, even a jpeg can be a good graphic format as long as it is well scanned. As for space, once I decided the file format and the compression I can figure out how much disk space I will need. I like a lot the idea of the script that in the background while scanning the next picture save the previous one. Summing up, as of now, I have the idea of purchasing the Nikon 4000, with slides accessory (as I also have 300 slides) and perhaps VueScan software. There is a new Epson scanner PhotoPC F-3200 which I do not know well but it does not show up in the compatibility list. Do you know if VueScan still needs SANE as backend? LAST QUESTION: Any time I have to submit/reply an email, I mail it, it gest on hold, and then it is sent to the mailing list. Is there a way to eliminate the hold process, so that when I need help, I just write to sane-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org and it gets posted? Thank you so much for the help.!

You'll probably want to write a script/program that scans an image and saves it to disk while the next one scans. That way, you don't need gigs of memory but the scanner need not wait for the disk, nor the other way around.

There's a table here: http://filmscanner.info/NikonSuperCoolscan5000ED.html Scroll down all the way to the bottom, then up until you hit the tables.

[sane-devel] Scanning Time Question
Hi, Approaching 15000 pictures 35mm I wish to know, for those who already have the scanner (I am thinking to purchase a Nikon LS 4000 or LS 5000) how is the scanning process. I explain better: If I say I have 50 pictures to scan, how do you handle the scanning process? Is it possible to scan x number of pictures, holding them in memory and then save them to the disk all at once or do I have to scan and save, scan and save? I am trying to understand what is that I will be faced with. I am also trying to figure out how much time it will take for me to scan pictures, and am trying to figure out how to standardize the process of manually scanning all these pictures. I know that scanning time depends on the depth of the scanned picture. But is there a table that shows based on the depth of color and bits what is the time needed for the device to scan and save? Thank you, Spiro
