 Hello,

 the sane-find-scanner and lsusb outputs are from a GL842 device. So 
it could be supported like other GL841/GL842 scanners by the genesys 
backend. The  GL120 printing on the chip doesn't correspond to any 
publicly known genesys chip.

[sane-devel] Updated info for Canon LiDE 500F

2013-09-03 Thread Daniel Ellis
Hi Stef, thanks for checking this out.  I did email Genesys Logic support
department regarding this chip on 13th August, but sadly I've had no
response.

Looking at their current scanner products
http://www.genesyslogic.com/en/product_list.php?1st=2

There are:

- GL125
- GL126
- GL128

So the naming scheme makes me think they could have had a GL120 in the past.

I hope my picture of the chip can be useful to someone else attempting to
get this scanner going.  But I'm going to give up on this scanner now. It's
time to eBay it, as I have held on to it for 6 years (I bought it about a
month before my transition to free software).

If there is anything else I can assist with before it goes let me know.

Thanks,
Dan

[sane-devel] saned on headless Centos 6 server

2013-09-03 Thread Jon Chamberlain
Hi,

I have configured an HP 1050 all-in-one on my Centos 6 server using the
manual instructions on the HPLIP site.

So far I am able to print and scan locally, but have been unsuccessful
in getting it to be seen across the network. net.conf, saned.conf and
hp,conf have been setup and I have configured xinted to start saned at
startup.

However, saned is not running as a service and is not recognised as a
service when i try to start it.

Suggestions as to where to start looking?

Jon

[sane-devel] Canonscan N 650U LIDE Scanner does not scan but makes terrible noise

2013-09-03 Thread windose
Hi,

with the help of Andrea Vai I was able to modify the file
plustek-usbdevs.c @ line 2064 entering 0.76 for dMaxMotorSpeed.

After that Andrea Vai showed me via Email recompiling 
sane-backends-git20130901

Only recompiling did not work, so we had to rename and modify the 
symbolic links in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane from

libsane-plustek.so - /usr/lib/sane/libsane-plustek.so.1.0.22
libsane-plustek.so.1 - /usr/lib/sane/libsane-plustek.so.1.0.22

to

libsane-plustek.so - /usr/lib/sane/libsane-plustek.so.1.0.24
libsane-plustek.so.1 - /usr/lib/sane/libsane-plustek.so.1.0.24

then I get a dialogue-box which tells me in German ( I translate)

#Warning
#You try to execute XSane as ROOT. This is really DANGEROUS!
#Don't send any error messages if you get problems when executing XSane 
#as root. You are alone !

Then I can choose between 'continue on your own risk' or 'cancel'

Thus, I am alone I go on on my own risk and there you see.

My Canonscan 650U scans as it should. I tried different resolutions.
NO TERRIBLE SOUND !!! YES !!!

I guess it has something to do with rights that I have to use Xsane and 
scanimage -L as root, because using the normal user the device will not 
be recognized. So if someone here has an idea it is highly appreciated.

Until now thank you very much to Andrea Vai showing me how to recompile 
and tweak.

Winni

[sane-devel] sane problems on Ubuntu 12.04

2013-09-03 Thread Pjotr LePetit
Helleo.
I have now compiled and installed the development version of SANE and 
everything works fine. Another tip to anybody having problems with the 9000F: 
check if the lock switch (under the lid) is on. 
A big thank you to the developers of SANE.

Hi Pjotr,

For your CS9000F Mark II you need the developer version from SANE.

Please install SANE again as described in README.linux.

Please also check 'scanimage -V' and 'scanimage -A'.

If you still have problems please provide debug output messages enabled with 
'export SANE_DEBUG_PIXMA=4'.

Cheers,
Rolf

I get this response both with 1.0.24 and the dev version. 1.0.24 gives no 
output. 
Any idea what to try next?

Saned should get started from xinetd. What does 
chkconfig saned
return? 
If it tells you saned is on, it should be possible to use the scanner
from a remote machine through the net backend

[sane-devel] canoscan 9000f mark ii

2013-09-03 Thread Rolf Bensch
Hi Norayr,


Am 02.09.2013 14:17, schrieb Norayr Chilingarian:

 Hello,

 I need a scanner which can scan film (35 and 120) and has a free driver.
 I need it because I'd like to scan on x86, powerpc and arm
 architectures, I need to not depend on operating system version, I
 need driver continue to work with latest glibc.


You can compile SANE for every Linux platform from source.

 As far as I understand, the canoscan 9000f and 9000f mark ii is
 supported completely.
 http://www.sane-project.org/lists/sane-mfgs-cvs.html


Yes. Except for dust and scratch removal infrared channel is scanned as
separate image yet. You need to process this by external programs. This
issue affects all SANE backends with ir support.

 As I have read at the pixma driver page, it seems, the source is open
 and redistributable. So it fits my needs.

 Just to make sure, did I get it right?
 Is the pixma free software?

Yes, it is.

   This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
   modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as
   published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the
   License, or (at your option) any later version.

(from header of pixma_common.c).

 Is it usually included in GNU/Linux distributions?


We cannot say what software / driver the distros will include in future,
but today it should be.

 Will it work on later versions of operating systems? It's not binary
 only, right? So it should work?


You can download only source code from the SANE website. Binaries /
Packages are provided from the distros.

 Or you may suggest other photo film scanner which has the free driver.


If the hardware fits your needs, the Pixma backend is well supported. I
myself own a CS9000F and can debug any problem with SANE.

Cheers,
Rolf
