I'm trying to scan from a Brother MFC7360N. The specs say the max optical scan resolution is 600 x 2400.
scanimage -A scanimage: rounded value of br-x from 215.9 to 215.88 scanimage: rounded value of br-y from 355.6 to 355.567 All options specific to device `brother4:net1;dev0': Mode: --mode Black & White|Gray[Error Diffusion]|True Gray|24bit Color|24bit Color[Fast] [24bit Color[Fast]] Select the scan mode --resolution 100|150|200|300|400|600|1200|2400|4800|9600dpi [200] Sets the resolution of the scanned image. --source FlatBed|Automatic Document Feeder(left aligned)|Automatic Document Feeder(centrally aligned) [Automatic Document Feeder(left aligned)] Selects the scan source (such as a document-feeder). ................ I've tried: scanimage -vvv --format pnm -x 215.9 -y 279.4 --mode '24bit Color' -d 'brother4:net1;dev0' --x-resolution 100 --y-resolution 200 --source FlatBed -p scanimage: value for --x is: 215.9 scanimage: value for --y is: 279.4 scanimage: unrecognized option '--x-resolution' ........ So it seems that if the backend doesn't expose --{xy}-resolution it doesn't exist. If I set --resolution to to 100, do I get 100 x 100 ? 600 -> 600 x 600 ? But if 1200, do I get interpolated X 1200(optical 600) and optical Y 1200 ? sean -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
