Hello, Although not a SANE user, I'd like to try and post a question about a hardware experiment on a Epson gt-8000.
It occurred to me that if it is possible to project a negative on the scanners glass pane using a slide accessory, it might also work to use a photo magnifier (I mean the thing used to print in a (B&W) darkroom, an Opemus 11 to be precise) with some kind of half transparent projection surface, just if I would succeed in scanning with the lights off. I guess that normally the scanner would notice a device connected to the 15 pin entrance on the rear, and maybe it would just be a matter of shortcircuiting some of its contacts, but maybe there is a trick to do it with one of the ini's that twain32 (win95) uses. (In the latter case I hope there's a similar linux option or continue my quest elsewhere) So please let me know if my question can be answered here... Regards from Arnhem, Netherlands, Bart Buitinga
