Hi, Thanks for the suggestion regarding Xsane vs xscanimage. I have confirmed that xsane does not have a problem w/ cancelling scan so I guess this points to an issue w/ xscanimage rather than w/ the DS3000 - chinon backend. Since you mentioned that this is an old problem I am assuming that there is an open bug already reported and will not add another one.
At this point I am not aware of any backend issues after testing w/ scanimage, xscanimage, xsane, and tstbackend. I have also tried the network access mode and things seem to work as well. So....what should I do next? Given the limited utility of the DS3000 backend I am not sure if it makes sense to include it in the sane distribution. As such I guess it would be considered an "external" backend. Whats the best way to make it available on the off chance that someone else also has a DS3000 still working. Thanks, Jim
