[sane-devel] Re: DS3000 Scanner Backend

[James A. Littlefield]

    I do not have the original source for the driver (Chinon only 
shipped a windows driver w/o source).     The scanner has both a 
parallel port and a serial port interface.     The serial interface 
command set is very well documented (and I am more familiar w/ using 
serial comm. on Linux!)  so I  made a Linus program to talk to the 
scanner on ttyS1.     Maybe after I get my serial sane backend working,  
I will try a parallel version too.    If anyone has a recommendation for 
some other make of serial scanner,  I could follow that backend as an 
example!

Thanks,
jim
