[sane-devel] good adf scanners

[m. allan noah]

that is nice to hear. i bet you are using SCSI. the 4120C can get a little 
flaky on USB. its replacements, the 5110C and the 4120C2 seem much better 
in that regard.

however, i have taken bertrik's advice and done some experiments where i 
keep throwing commands at the scanner until it responds. so i may have 
found a way around the usb lockup problems on the older models, without 
calling usb_reset.

my kingdom for a spare moment to code it....
