scanimage -L device `v4l:/dev/video0' is a Noname CKF7037 virtual device device `genesys:libusb:001:009' is a Visioneer Readwarrior flatbed scanner But scanimage -T shows error: scanimage: sane_start: Invalid argument xsane stars and detects scanner and I could even scan 1 page more or less correctly(colors and quality is awful) but i couldn't scan another page it was not shown. What can I do more to correct all these problems and make this device fully functional ? > If everything works with this dirty hack, then Stef or Pierre can do a more formal update to the backend. > > Good luck. > Jack McGill >
