Thanks for your effort! I added a link to your website to the
unsupported page of the ScanJet 3970c.

Which other scanners in the 3900 series do exist? 

According to our lists, also the HP 4070 and 4370 use the RTS8822
chipset.

Bye,

I don't really know if other scanners than hp3970c exist. But HP's
software indicates in cd's cover clearly hp scanjet 3900 series and as
I can see, driver sends different parameters to rts8822 chipset
depending on ccd type (toshiba or sony) and depending on usb version
(1.1 or 2.0) so I think it covers the most options needed in other
scanners managed by this chipset.

 According to our lists, also the HP 4070 and 4370 use the RTS8822
 chipset.

I'm testing on hp3970c scanner. I'll modify application to set usb
product and usb vendor as app's argument (silly lapse)

Hello,

I write this mail only to announce that I've registered the project to
create hp scanjet 3900 series (chipset Realtek RTS8822) backend at
sourceforge.

Site: http://sourceforge.net/projects/hp3900-series/

I've released a first alpha and very unstable version of an stand-alone
program to show current status of project. Basically program makes
preview scans with no calibration and generates and image in ppm format.

Despite of this project is GPL I prefer to release binary package until
application's code will be more stable and less uggly, so please, be
patient :)

Sincerelly, Jonathan Bravo Lopez (JKD)
