Hi guys, Been trying to get a Brother DS-600 working for the better part of today, because unlike the DS-600 supported by SANE, I was getting a device ID of 0x204e (instead of sane's documented 0x2038). The DS-600 was formerly Pentax, which is what a lot of the documentation states even though the second designation 0x047f9 / 0x2038 is a Brother (they bought Pentax). Anyway, turns out Brother has updated the chipset to a GL125 from the previous GL841 so current versions of this scanner are not supported. At least as of .23, I haven't checked git.
Brother DSmobile 600 (model: DS-600), usb ids 0x04f9 / 0x204e Shows up as chipset GL848+, but I checked the board inside and it's definitely GL125. I poked my nose into genesys_devices.c and forced genesys settings for GL841 (the old one for DS-600) and GL847 (used recently in Canons) but was met only with an I/O error on both occasions, so I am assuming this is a chip that actually needs to be implemented separately and doesn't use the same api. I guess I just thought someone should know. Please let me know if I can help, or if there's another chip similar to the GL125 I can try to force (maybe GL124?) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
