[sane-devel] New Epson Scanners

[Till Kamppeter]

Sorry, for the delay, our release and the www.linux-kongress.de needed 
to much time. But now I tested the Epson Perfection 1260. In terms of 
the rating of linuxprinting.org 
(http://www.linuxprinting.org/database.html) I would say it works 
"Mostly". Scanning of normal paper documents works, but the transparency 
light is not recognized.

I have connected the transparency light to the scanner, plugged the 
power and USB in, and then I loaded the USB scanner module with

    modprobe scanner vendor=0x04b8 product=0x011d

edited /etc/sane.d/dll.conf to only contain one line "plustek". In the 
/etc/sane.d/plustek.conf I added vendor and product ID to the "[usb]" 
line, set "enableTPA 1" and left all the rest at its default velues.

Both "xscanimage" and "xsane" do not show a button to switch to the 
transparencty unit. Also not under "Advanced options". Kooka has a 
button for that, but at the button there is a warning that the choices 
do not necessarily all work and when I choose transparency there, the 
scanner stillscans with the internal light for normal paper.

I use SANE 1.0.9pre1 (source from SANE home page, both frontends and 
backends) on a Mandrake 9.0 machine. I have attached the debug output 
(level 12, the maximum as described on 
http://www.gjaeger.de/scanner/usb/Plustek-USB.txt) of "scanimage -L".\
