I have removed now all Adaptec Kernel extensions from /System/Library/Extensions except Adaptec 78XXSCSI.kext as described in the following article.
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-10334774-263.html sane-find-scanner lists now only a single scanner device. found SCSI scanner "AGFA DUOSCAN 2.30" at <0240a6000000002d134c34f4a> I think this is an improvement. Yet, the scanner device has just this strange number, and scanimage -L still states that no scanners were identified. Any idea how to fix this? -Werner On 22.07.2011, at 10:52, Werner Randelshofer wrote: > 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
