Hi Ilia! I can confirm great success as my ScanJet 4500C is now working with provided patch. I did some basic tests with various DPI and I didn't experience any problems so far. I'd like to thank you a lot for you work! I can attach some logs if you're interested in or if you want them. Just let me know. Thanks again!
