[sane-devel] Agfa DuoScan SCSI scanner with Mac OS X 10.4

[Werner Randelshofer]

Hi,

I am trying to use an Agfa DuoScan SCSI scanner with Mac OS X 10.4.

When I run sane-find-scanner, the scanner is listed, but scanimage -L reports an error.
I think scanimage does not work, because the device is listed with a number instead of with /dev/...

I tried 
$ scanimage -d 01723e000000000e0b9ad186
scanimage: open of device 01723e000000000e0b9ad186 failed: Invalid argument

and

$ scanimage -d "<01723e000000000e0b9ad186>"
scanimage: open of device 01723e000000000e0b9ad186 failed: Invalid argument


Is there a different way how I am suposed to use the device number in the scanimage command?


Below are the outputs of sane-find-scanner and scanimage -L.

TIA,
Werner
