[sane-devel] Dell1815dn

[Jon Chambers]

Hi Pamcho,

You are correct, the perl script driver supports the 1815dn but the SANE 
dell1600n_net backend does not.  This is because I don't have an 1815dn and 
adding the support to the perl driver was a real pain (as I was unable to 
test as I went along).  For this reason I don't have any imminent plans to go 
through the same process with the SANE driver.

However for someone with one of these scanners and a little C programming 
experience then it should be pretty easy (especially since they would have my 
perl script as an example).  I would be very happy to help with this.

cheers,
Jon
