I have to give credits to (older!) Microtek scanner manuals: they *do*
give pin connections *and* the signals and control codes sent from the
scanner - so one can build one's own driver.
Don't know if that's still the case with newer TWAIN branched machines.
Those older scanners even had a serial(!) output mode (for debugging
purposes, I was told by one of their techies); as the parallel port on
my '286 supposedly was not able to work bidirectionally, I used that
serial alternative (sure very slow) to handicraft a driver producing
*.PCX files. Slow, but execellent quality, and perfect for fax.
