Ok.. I have a Umax Astra 610S.. Seems I've had all kinds of troubles.. but here's what I just found.
In the Geometry window from Xsane, I can set the Y variation to anything and it will scan at 300 dpi.. but as far as the X variation, it seems I can only go 2.80 units (according to the Xsane Geometry slider bars), otherwise it won't finish the scan. Note: I think 2.8 units is 2.8 inches.. not sure.. but.. anything wider than that will cause the scanner to get an EOF. Any thoughts? This is more and more sounding like a library.. but I could be wrong. I don't think this is a mechanical problem as I can scan on any part of the page as long as it is 2.80 units wide or less (x).. Any measurement is fine with height (y). This is a curve in my progress. Help! * Jordan Peterson
