[sane-devel] 1.0.8/N640P

[Ian Stirling]

Having recently acquired a N640P, for use with my (pre-USB) laptop, I
thought I'd try it out on my desktop system. (the laptop is in >30 bits
ATM, needs reassembled)
After obtaining sane*1.0.8, and compiling, 
scanimage -L
Reports no scanners found.
scanimage -d canon_pp:/dev/parport0
Complains of error during device IO.
'scan' (built with libieee 0.1.5 or 0.1.6) does work, but only
in nibble mode.
I've tried setting ECP/EPP/ECP+EPP/SPP in the BIOs, without any
difference.
The cable is the one supplied with the scanner.
