Hi Steph,

Could you tell me how and where I use this command? (scanimage -d genesys --help)
Is it in the SANE prefs file? if so, do i enter the command under my particular scanner model?
I tried putting this command into terminal but got nothing back -

Sorry I cant profess to know much about command line interface..


Thanks for you help..


Ben
