Hi list. I've tried really hard to find information about how to detect if the button on my scanner is pressed. I've got a ScanSnap S1500, which is supported by the fujitsu backend, and works as expected using for example scanimage.
The scanner itself only has one backlit button titled "scan". If I press it, it starts to blink for a couple of seconds and then goes back to normal (which is constant lit). If I type "scanimage --help" I'm presented with numerous sensor options, including the following: --scan[=(yes|no)] [no] [hardware] Scan button Typing "scanimage --scan" results in: scanimage: unrecognized option '--scan' (None of the other sensor options is recognised either.) I've tried to access the scanner via saned using the network protocol, but the scan-option (#83) always responds false, even if I press and hold the scan button. Is this model not supported when detecting buttons, or am I doing something completely wrong? Best regards, Mikael -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
