Argh! Looks like I was very unconcentrated while writing my previous mail :-(
Some major 'bugfixes': 1) the URL of my homepage is http://home.t-online.de/home/karsten.festag and therefore the readme is http://home.t-online.de/home/karsten.festag/software/readme 2) for thesting the X12USL you should not only disable the 'no-backtracking' option but also enable the option 'backend-calibration'. A scanimage command thus may look like: scanimage --no-backtracking=no --backend-calibration=yes -l0 -t0 -x100 -y20 2>scan.log >sout.pnm Regards, Karsten Karsten Festag wrote: > Hi folks > I made a whole lot of changes to the microtek2 backend (see > http://me/home/karsten.festag/software/readme). > > Especially ADF users should test if the frontend gets now > SANE_STATUS_NO_DOCS rather than an I/O error in case of an empty ADF. > And X12 users should give that version a try.
