It's really easy, e.g.: import sane sane.init() scanner = sane.open(sane.get_devices()[0][0]) scanner.source='ADF' #select ADF sheet feeder as source scanner.resolution = 200 #set resolution in dpi scanner.mode = 'Color' img = scanner.scan() img.show() As I said, only thing I haven't figured out yet is how to get the second image from a Duplex scan (other than by using xsane), everything else works to perfection Horst
