I'm running RH 6.1 and installed sane 1.0.5. My first attempt to scan an image was to use
scanimage >data and I obtained a 500K PGM file, which showed totally blurred. # scanimage -L device `mustek:/dev/scanner' is a Mustek MFS-12000SP flatbed scanner Why does this say MUSTEK 12000SP? It is a 1200SP. Reading a bit in man scanimage I found options and tried scanimage -d mustek:/dev/scanner --resolution 1200dpi Trying this resulted in starting the scanner and producing a file that still wasn't finished after writing 14 MB of data. I stopped the scan. Scanning at 300dpi is now (after 5 minutes) at 5 MB. I cannot see how the scanner is acting because I'm doing the tests remotely, but I suspect that the scanner sensor is moving terribly slow. -- Chris Christoph P. U. Kukulies [email protected]
