That was exactly what I did: unplug the scanner power supply, unplug the parallel cable and then replug everything in reversed order (parallel, power) and the scanner worked again. Thanks for the additional information, much appreciated!! --------------050705070004090704050802 Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <meta content="text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1" http-equiv="Content-Type"> <title></title> </head> <body bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000"> <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:[email protected]";>[email protected]</a> wrote: <blockquote cite="[email protected]" type="cite"> <pre wrap="">On Wed, Oct 13, 2004 at 07:45:27PM -0500, Gian Paolo Mureddu wrote: </pre> <blockquote type="cite"> <pre wrap="">I had my UMAX 2000 branded HP 3200c (Parallel port) scanner working with SANE just fine after I edited the /etc/sane.d/dll.conf file to also look for this scanner, however (I don't know if it was coincidence or not, or if it has to do with the problem or not) after I upgreded my distribution (FC2) especially the GIMP to version 2.0.5 from 2.0.4, I could scan an image just fine, however while working on the scanned image (not yet saved) GIMP crashed (while xsane was still running).

Thanks in advance for any input. </pre> </blockquote> <pre wrap=""><!----> When you get 0xE8 or 0xD8 values, the scanner's ASIC is confused and needs resetting. It can be done by powering off the scanner, unplugging the parallel port cable, plugging it back then powering on. The ASIC gets confused each time a command in progress fails, in your case it's certainly caused by the GIMP crash wich prevented the the backend to finish cleanly the scan.

That was exactly what I did: unplug the scanner power supply, unplug the parallel cable and then replug everything in reversed order (parallel, power) and the scanner worked again.
