I don't know anything about Microtek scanners so I'm just guessing: Does the wait_ready function work at all? To be more specific: does the result of sanei_scsi_cmd return anything other than SANE_STATUS_GOOD? If yes, I would just increse the number of tries to e.g. 10. Currently it waits only for 15 seconds which may be to little. If it doesn't work at all, you may have to look at a different way for checking if the scanner is ready. There is a variety of functions to to this in mustek.c, because every Mustek scanner has it's onw idea of how to tell that he's ready. By the way: Matthew Marjanovic <[email protected]> is the listed active maintainer of this backend. I don't know if he is still maintaining the backend, but you can try to contact him. Bye, Henning
