no on both questions i think. there is a scsi command to set a timer on the lamp, but the backend does not send this command. should not be too hard to add.
i have not investigated auto paper sizing, but it seems that it would only work for width, and would involve perhaps taking a single scanline at full width, and then determine most likely window params from that. this would be a bit more work. allan On Mon, 15 Nov 2004, Mattias Kregert wrote: > Hello list, > > I have some questions about my fujitsu FI-4120C...
