[sane-devel] Scanner Benq 7650T

[Ady Deac]

Hi all,

Any chance we can get this to work? The scanner is working with SANE, 
but I can only scan 1/4 (top left corner) of the whole A4 document. I 
know I have used it before - I guess about 1 or 2 years, and was working 
great, but I don't remember the version of SANE.

Also, are there any chances for the transparency adapter to work also?

Any work that is needed (and I can do it) I am willing to do it! Please 
use me! :D

Thank you,
Adrian
