I now have the following HP scanners, ScanJet 3600c, ScanJet 3650c (with external film/slide reader), ScanJet 3670c (built-in film/slide reader), ScanJet 3690c, ScanJet 3930c, ScanJet 3970c.
All but one is GL646_HP based. I have confirmed that the software I have for Mac OS X works with all of the scanners except for the 3970c which I think is an GL841_HP. I have a Mac OS X ppc button driver that works with all of the GL646_HP scanners and I really think that this would be useful if decompiled since it works with all of the GL^$^_HP scanners, recognizes 3, 4 and 5 buttons (also 3 on scanner and 2 on film/slide reader) and basically calls external applications based on the button that is pressed. but decompiling without tools or knowledge/ experience of decompiling is not appealing to me. I'd like to help in any way I can, I've installed the Mac OS X binary distro which I believe is built from CVS and I can help with testing in Mac OS and possibly contribute a patch or two if build issues occur since I am extremely familiar with the build environment. localhost:~ dale$ scanimage --version scanimage (sane-backends) 1.1.0-cvs; backend version 1.1.0 localhost:~ dale$ On Aug 16, 2008, at 10:19 AM, Robert John Morton wrote: > Yes.
