Here's a status update for my magicolor backend (git repo at http://repo.or.cz/w/sane-backend-magicolor.git ) The backend is basically working (both with USB and LAN connectivity, with 150-600dpi, mode BW/Gray/Color, source ADF/FBF). What is now working: -) Network auto-detection (using snmp) -) scanning (scanimage or xsane or any other frontend) o) from FBF or ADF o) with a resolution of 150/300/600dpi (color only 150/300dpi) o) in BW/Gray/Color. That's basically everything the device supports at all. -) Multiple pages can be scanned from the FBF Of course, there is still some work to do, in particular in two areas: -) Add more status checks (sometimes the communication times out, then one has to turn off and on the device). -) USB connections: The device has two bulk-in endpoints (#4 and #5), where SANE automatically uses the first one #4, while the scanner only responds to #5. Thus, USB communication does not currently work. However, as soon as I change sanei_usb_open not to ignore the second detected bulk-in endpoint, then scanning from USB works just as fine as over the network.
