I wondered about that. I didn't see git. Sorry, and yes, that is good. > - There's an error with scanimage/pixma backend when setting explicitly > -x or -y options to "auto".

Yes, but as has been discussed already by now, we're not sure if those features are actually supported, and some seem to be sure they are not. The confusion comes in because the Microsoft XP MX330-packaged scanning software does do autodetect of a sort (when you specify "picture", it takes all picture-looking things and makes a seperate cropped file for each, and does a pretty darn good job of it without cutting too much or too little), so presumably that's software driven by the program in the computer, not in the scanner/multifunction device. > > Is there any other point I would have missed ? No, apparently the documentation was more outdated than git, so we're good once that's done. If I had known this existed back in the summer, I would have had many more months of not having to run VMWARE with XP in it, crashing my computer so much ... > > Nicolas > > > >
