May I ask you to collect the debug information but with SANE_DEBUG_HP5590=50 set? The debug information will contain more details, including scanner firmware version. I suspect that it could be different from mine. Here it is... hope this helps! From what I see, your device has firmware version 1.05, mine had 0.67. That could be one reason. Could I ask you to conduct the same test and supply the log, but using another frontend, perhaps Xsane? Also with debugging (SANE_DEBUG_HP5590=50) enabled. Sure, what do you want me to try? Using ADF, plain? Anyway, the log looks normal for me, except for scanner failed to start scanning operarion for 2nd page. Next step would be to gather Usbsnoop log from Windows machine during the same operation. Do you have Windows installed on some machine where you could do that? Yes, I've got a Windows machine arround. I'll try that. -- Albert Cervera i Areny http://www.NaN-tic.com

It seems that this scanner is still unsupported in sane. The last entry about this scanner is from 2003. That's why I'm worried that nobody works on it. ?I have shortly begun with Programming in C. I have really no good skills but want to help. Is still somebody working on the genesys-backend for this scanner? Can I help in some form? Markus Kummer
[sane-devel] SANE 1.1.0 Release discussion
Lets talk about SANE 1.1.0 release, both timetables and deliverables. I have tried to pick some things from recent discussions, and build on the momentum provided by stef and julien. It is not my intention to hijack this process, but I have some spare cycles coming up, and we are all tired of talking :) I have five general points for 1.1.x: - no changes to function calls - no changes to structures - 1.0 backends forward compatible with 1.1 - improve backend consistency - support more advanced scanners Based on those ideas, I propose: 1. Consistent, translatable option groups (please add/change to this list): 'Standard' = source, mode, resolution 'Geometry' = x/y and paper size params 'Enhancement' = bright/gamma/contrast/thresh, rif, sharpen, halftone settings, etc 'Advanced' = compression, calibration, double/manual feed controls, backlights, tests, dropout, etc 'Sensors/Buttons' = an option for every hardware button or sensor others? 2. Consistent well known-options, button handling and papersize come to mind. others? 3. Two new return codes: SANE_STATUS_HW_LOCK to tell the frontend that the scanner has a hardware lock installed, and SANE_STATUS_WARMING_UP for lamp. 4. More SANE_FRAME types, jpeg, fax, IR, text, xml. 5. Add SANE_TYPE_HW_BUTTON for scanners' buttons. The constraint field would allow to distinguish between push buttons (0 or 1 )and 'wheel buttons' (0 to N). 6. Common debugging bitmask: 1 major errors 2 minor errors 4 function start/stop msgs 8 function detail msg 16 SANE_OPTION processing msgs 32 calibration msgs 64 outgoing command dump 128 incoming data dump help me fix that... 6. Add common configuration reading function in sanei_* so that new or maintained backends can benefit from it. Wholesale config file restructuring? Other things from stef's list have been left out because the dont meet my 5 points, anyone else have some more? My plan is to work on this over the next two months, and aim for a feature freeze around July 4th, with release close to July 30th, though we could certainly accelerate that with some help. Comments welcome. allan -- The truth is an offense, but not a sin

[sane-devel] Epson Perfection 2400 - conks out on desktop machine but works on laptop
My scanner has been in storage while I had no room for it, but I reinstalled it today after removing a redundant printer. However, despite both my laptop and my desktop having similar setups, the scanner fails - usually coming to a halt - part way through a scan on my desktop machine. It does not do so on my laptop, but I cannot see any reason why it would fail on the desktop - there are no obvious error messages. The machines are both running Debian etch, sane 1.0.18. I use the epson backend, and have also tried epkowa on the laptop. How can I work out what is wrong with the setup on the desktop? It is mainly on that machine I want the scanner to work. -- Phil Reynolds o mail: phil-sane at tinsleyviaduct.com |L_ \ / Web: http://www.tinsleyviaduct.com/phil/ (_)- \/ Waltham 66, Emley Moor 69, Droitwich 79, Windows 95

Is still somebody working on the genesys-backend for this scanner? Can I help in some form? Markus Kummer Hello, you may search the archive about mails for HP 2400 support. The answer is the same. Basically, the process is to record USB logs of the scanner working under windows, then process them to extract commands and register settings, then modify the genesys_gl646.c code to handle it the same. There is some documentation at http://stef.dev.free.fr/sane/genesys/index.html . The C code involved is not high, all you'll have to do some modification of existing code. There is allready an device description of the 3670c in genesys_devices.c . To do a quick test, you can uncomment (remove the '#' at the start of the line) the usb id of your scanner in genesys.conf (which is usually located at /etc/sane.d), then try to use it from scanimage. It should be detected and I expect it to fail during warm-up. Regards, Stef

For instance, i have seen scanners that have only a single paper guide, and move narrow pages to the left instead of center. there is no way for the frontend to know this, so the backend should account for it, but it will need to know the paper size. 4.
