Hi, I am trying to use an Agfa DuoScan SCSI scanner with Mac OS X 10.4.
When I run sane-find-scanner, the scanner is listed, but scanimage -L reports an error. I think scanimage does not work, because the device is listed with a number instead of with /dev/... I tried $ scanimage -d 01723e000000000e0b9ad186 scanimage: open of device 01723e000000000e0b9ad186 failed: Invalid argument and $ scanimage -d "<01723e000000000e0b9ad186>" scanimage: open of device 01723e000000000e0b9ad186 failed: Invalid argument Is there a different way how I am suposed to use the device number in the scanimage command? Below are the outputs of sane-find-scanner and scanimage -L. TIA, Werner $ sane-find-scanner # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer. found SCSI scanner "AGFA DUOSCAN 2.30" at <01723e000000000e0b9ad186> found SCSI scanner "AGFA DUOSCAN 2.30" at <01723c000000000e1b7f7937> found SCSI scanner "AGFA DUOSCAN 2.30" at <01723a000000000e3190bf86> found SCSI scanner "AGFA DUOSCAN 2.30" at <017238000000000e31ec6d9c> found SCSI scanner "AGFA DUOSCAN 2.30" at <017236000000000e32468f79> found SCSI scanner "AGFA DUOSCAN 2.30" at <017234000000000e329f8164> found SCSI scanner "AGFA DUOSCAN 2.30" at <017232000000000e32f98119> found SCSI scanner "AGFA DUOSCAN 2.30" at <017230000000000e335270aa> # Your SCSI scanner was detected.

If you were expecting something different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
