OK, in the Manuf. list Iris is listed (unsuport) and Portable
Peripheral which uses Plustek. I can't remember where I found PP but
it popped out somewhere and it looked like PP was the manuf. and Iris
is the label but now I can't re-find (@#$!@#). OK, just did
lsusb: Bus 005 Device 013: ID 0a53:300a Portable Peripheral Co., Ltd
sane-find: found USB scanner (vendor=0x0a53 [I.R.I.S], product=0x300a
[IBCR III]) at libusb:005:013
So, adding
usb 0x0a53 0x300a
vendor "Iris"
model "IBCR III"
to iris.conf does nothing - but (ta-da) adding it to gt68.conf (and
uncommenting in dll)
SI -L gives:
device `gt68xx:libusb:005:013' is a Iris 0>-� flatbed scanner
scanimage > card1.img
gt68xx] WARNING: You have manually added the ids of your scanner
[gt68xx] to gt68xx.conf. Please use an appropriate override
[gt68xx] for your scanner. (and another 50 lines...)
So I guess now I need some more hand holding. I don't know if I'm
going down the right path or out in left field.
I can probability modify the driver (well hope). I started
programming on a DEC-PDP7 in assembly lang. [lac, dac, isz...], speak
C, PHP etc. So if you can tell me where to go.... (politely) ;-)
Thanks for any help you can give.

So, you have a conf file. Now all you need is a driver to read it it,
and send the right commands to the scanner :)
Unfortunately, that scanner is not listed on our supported hardware
page, and is unlikely to work.

scanimage loads the sane library, and queries it for attached
scanners. This generally involves each enabled backend being queried
in turn. Backends are enabled by listing them in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf
(though this might be installed elsewhere on your system).
When asking for help, it is generally a good idea to include the
sane-backends (libsane) version you are using, and list the scanner
model as well.

Thanks for the reply. FC-19, 64/libsane.so.1(.0.24), IrisScan Mini
[HCRSPIBCRA8G2]
sane-find=found USB scanner (vendor=0x0a53 [I.R.I.S], product=0x300a [IBCR
III]) at libusb:005:012
so "find" is able to connect and reach into the scanner.
I created an iris.conf file:
usb 0x0a53 0x300a
model "I.R.I.S"
scanimage -L says No scanners were identified. So I'm trying to figure out
/ find out how find works and scan doesn't - without becoming a Jedi
Master...
Baring getting this scanner working, I need a business card scanner -
without spending a lot of money. In looking at the "supported" table there
are no BC scanners - 4'x8' beds, lots but they don't fit on my desk.
Again Thanks

How does scanimage (-L) detect the scanner? lsusb finds my scanner
sane-find finds it, but scanimage draws a blank.
Thanks
