I wish I knew! I only have a 2710S and could not run any tests on the older 2700. I think the first error reports came in after I had put in focus support for the 2710S. My suggestion is that you retrieve older Canon backends from CVS (or I can mail them to you); you compile them and try them out on your scanner until we know which version worked. I know that this is tedious, but it seems to be the only way to find out what exactly went wrong. Regards, Ulrich Deiters
