Hello,
after many months of tests I just discovered that the Epson FilmScan 200 hangs if the first command that is sent is a reset (doh!). Resolving this issue enabled me going further in the development of the epson2 backend. I've started the development from the epson backend and restructured it in order to better support different scanners on different transport layers, like tcp/ip. My plans are to fully support the FilmScan 200, including the Advanced Photo System loader, and other epson scanners. I will be able to test on Epson CX11NF and GT-7000 photo any I'm searching for interested people that can both help in development and/or test with other epson devices. I'm particularly interested in scanners equipped with ADF and/or backlight units. Hardware donations will be appreciated :) Furthermore, my backend will be one day able to support tcp/ip communications with the CX11NF. I'm currently able to detect and setup the scanner properties and still have to write the actual scanning routines. -- Best regards, Alessandro Zummo, Tower Technologies - Turin, Italy http://www.towertech.it
