Hello,
this scanner is reported to have a GL841 ASIC. If so it could be added
to the
genesys backend. Try sane-find-scanner to check the ASIC. If it is really
GL841 based, have a look at the genesys*.[ch] sources. You can start by adding
needed entries in genesys.conf.in and genesys_devices.c and then start to
tests.
Regards,
Stef
