I think there is no way in SANE currently. While you can just set up a read-only option to hold the paper size, the frontend won't read that option automatically when you insert paper. So it will work that way when the paper is already there when the frontend is started. For more "intelligence" polling is needed (see button discussion). Obviously the frontend also needs to know what to do with the option value to be useful. Bye, Henning
