I would like to write a backend for this range of all in one printers. (I have
Kodak ESP 5250)
I have made some progress with the protocol and can aquire a scan.
But It's not obvious how the data in the scan is organised.
Does anyone recognise it?
The protocol has 8 byte commands, for example a s
I have managed to deduce the protocol sufficiently to aquire uncompressed scan
data from my Kodak ESP 5250 Aio.
I have written a python program that aquires a scan over the wifi network
interface.
So I propose to try and write a SANE backend, unless someone already has?
Any suggestions for a goo
I want to write a new backend.
Currently the main obstacle is that I find the backend build system very
intimidating.
I have no experience of autoconf, automake, or libtool.
On my system (ubuntu 10.10) I can run autoreconf and ./configure apparently OK,
but when I run make I get these errors:
li
autoreconf -i -f
seems to have enabled me to make the backends.
So now I am trying the approach of adding a new backend (copy of an existing
one) to the backends to see if I can install that.

Or should I be trying to get it added to sane backends as soon as possible? - I
hesitate to do that because I guess it will need quite a bit of tidying up
before it's really ready for that.

I have ubuntu 11.10 with net-snmp 5.4.3
sane-backends configure says net-snmp 5.6 is needed
Can anyone explain how the dependencies are determined for sane-backends?
Since cups can use net-snmp 5.4.3 to find printers, is it really necessary
to have 5.6 ?
Is there some very useful extra feature in

large.

I have a filter that works OK with CMYK inks.
But the printer (Kodak AiO) actualy also has grey (or light black) ink
Can anyone tell me what I should do to use the grey ink?
Or better still is there any existing backend that has CMYK and grey inks,
that I could imitate?

I have been through the process of writing a backend myself in the last

I want to update the .desc file for the recently added backend kodaio. In
order to add usbid entries.
I guess that's an appropriate change now? as a documentation change.
Do I go ahead and try to replace the file in the git version? Or is it
better to post it here?

Allan,
I found a typo in configure.in
on line 329 I have "nl" instead of "dnl" at the start of a comment.
It causes some error messages when running ./configure, but does not look as
though it will break anything.
Should I be fixing that now? or leaving it?
I think you are still in the process of
n the set up of the "machine" that does the
compiling, and not on the set up of the user's machine.

I changed the kodakaio backend to use avahi instead of cups for network auto
discovery.
That meant changing backends/Makefile.am
I'm not sure of the normal routine when Makefiles get changed. I did the
following:
git pull
I edited some files including Makefile.am.
autoreconf
git add .
git commit
add white space until the required scan dimensions were met.
But are there any more elegant solutions to this problem? For example is it
possible for sane_read to return with something like END_PAGE_NOW_STATUS ?
Then the front end makes the best use that it can of the data returned so
far?

My testing is a bit clunky since I only have kodakaio scanners.
If anyone who had this problem could test it by enabling kodakaio to see
