Hello SANErs,
the Canon Pixma TS5150 is a pretty simple inkjet-machine, providing
printing, copying and scanning (no FAX).
We are talking here just about the WIFI-connection (cable should work).
* Canon, using a special protocol in the form of bnjp://IP.address,
provdes a proprietary software /scangearmp2/, which is working, but
is pretty rudimentary as well.
* commercial software like /Vuescan/ is getting into contact
immediately without any configuration
* SANE - in its last versions - should be able to handle the
bjnp-protocol as well, unfortunately doesn't in this case. You can
make, what you want.
But there is a package /sane-airscan/, which does the job, making
available Xsane, Skanlite and all of the other Opensource-frontends.
Also without any further configuration.
So my question is: Shouldn't it be possible, to integrate - or, atÂ
least, to use its technology - /sane-airscan/ into SANE to make machines
of that kind work directly out of the SANE-box?
Thanks for your work and time
Wolfram Heider
