[sane-devel] Re: Sane API Suggestion

2003-07-21 Thread Peter Santoro
Thank you all for your input. I do understand (and expected) the responses I got. I probably should have included some sample source code to support and clarify my suggestion. For those who are interested, a summary of some cross language issues can be found at http://xarch.tu-graz.ac.at/aut

[sane-devel] scheme interface for sane?

2003-06-21 Thread Peter Santoro
I'm currently using sane via scanimage and scanadf from scheme. If anyone has written a scheme extension/interface (preferably mzscheme) for sane or managed to call it from some ffi, I would appreciate hearing about it. Thank you, Peter

[sane-devel] scanimage and scanadf command line args

2003-06-20 Thread Peter Santoro
My application makes use of scanimage and scanadf (sane 1.0.12 backend and 1.0.11 frontend) and it appears that there are a few inconsistencies with respect to the command line args of these sane front-ends. For instance, when using my fujitsu fi-4120c, "scanadf --help" shows that there is a "

2003-06-05 Thread Peter Santoro
Ok, I believe I've figured this one out. The function handle_depth_halftone (epson.c) indicates that for threshold to be enabled, the mode must be Binary and halftoning must be None. After adding in some fprintf (to stderr) statements, I discovered that the order of the command line arguement

2003-06-03 Thread Peter Santoro
Karl, I also noticed that Epson's ISCAN GUI no longer works after installing the SANE 1.0.12 backend. ISCAN has a setting for threshold, so it is probably the same bug. Using scanimage directly (not via my code) only works if the threshold option is not used, so I doubt it's my code. Also,

2003-06-02 Thread Peter Santoro
The scanimage threshold option worked in the 1.0.9 backend with my Epson 1660 Photo Perfection scanner. After uninstalling the 1.0.9 backend and installing the 1.0.12 backend, scanimage complains "attempted to set inactive option threshold" and fails. I took a quick look at the epson code (wh

I'm considering on buying a fujitsu scanparter scanner ( 93GX, fi-4220C, 15c, or 620c), but I want to be certain that I purchase one that is well supported by sane (or perhaps scanDoX). The folks at scanDoX indicate that fujitsu 15c/620c scanparter scanners are supported in sane via sp15c drive

I just purchased an Epson Perfection 1660 Photo scanner to work with Linux (RedHat 7.3 and Slackware 8.1). I built, installed, and configured SANE according to directions. It works great. Thanks! But I do have a couple of questions. 1) I understand that Linux supports 16 usb scanners. Am I
