[sane-devel] custom SANE backend

2019-01-20 Thread Mark DM
I have a working linux command line utility that controls a scanner and all functions. I was wondering if anyone has made a "generic" backend for custom commands to control a scanner. the idea is to execute the command line utility with the options for the scan. for instance to scan using the

[sane-devel] How to make a custom app respond to SANE commands?

2019-02-03 Thread Mark DM
I have a custom app for a non SANE compatible scanner. I have looked around the web to see what I can find aboy the SANE protocol used for network scanning and have not found much. I am pretty sure a SANE scanner server must advertise certain features to SANE clients and that those messages are

Do both systems show the same USB ID for the scanner? If not you need to use a tool that sets the mode of the USB device I believe it is called USB Modeswitch. Some devices rely on this to change the "personality" of the device by changing the USB ID . This is commonly used in 3G USB dongles but

Hello inSANErs , I saw a post fro about a year ago where someone wanted to start a project for an eSCL back-end for SANE on Google Summer of code. Did that go anywhere? As I have spent many months learning the ins and outs of AirScan eSCL protocol , with much trial and error, I am interested in

I am testing using the test backend and have an issue in that it responds much more quickly that a real scanner. I am working with making eSCL compatibility and need to see if there is a way to slow it down so a virtual scan takes more than a couple of seconds. This is the only way I will be able

I have developed a solution of sharing a Windows Scanner via the eSCL protocol. It is called Twain2AirScan. Although it is compatible with SANE as a client via the SANE-AirScan back-end (not SANE-eSCL) ,it is not really "SANE" . Recently I added duplex ADF where before it had only simple ADF.

I think also depending on what software you use to scan makes a big difference some software has the ability to process the image according to a defined preset or even auto mode. Seems to me I discovered much the same on an old cannon scanner some years ago. On Sat, Apr 15, 2023, 2:24 PM Ralph
