[sane-devel] Visioneer Onetouch 4400 USB (Visioneer/Primax Primascan Colorado 2600u, Memorex 6142u)

[m. allan noah]

keith, i dont like snoopypro, i prefer either the original (non-pro) or 
even better, SniffUSB.exe v1.8 from 
http://benoit.papillault.free.fr/usbsnoop/index.php

the latter is easier to install, and i like the debug log it makes better.

you can cat the output from it into the attached perl script, which cleans 
things up some, though it does not deal with control packets fully...

i usually work on adf scanners, which have alot of sensors and buttons, 
usually, so i test them by doing one thing at a time with a pause between 
each, ie: start sniffer, open lid, wait 15 seconds, close lid, wait, push 
paper sensor, wait, button1, wait, button2, etc. then i add paper to the 
scanner, and press the buttons again, etc.

then you stare at the output for awhile, and try to find patterns.
