[sane-devel] Canon Scanner P-208 II

[Thomas Geier]

Hi,

I think this is the known state for this scanner, which are the same as 
for the P-208 (without II). There is a Sane driver that can be 
downloaded from Canon with sources included. Apparently it was built 
against a very old version of sane, and I was not able to compile it. 
Maybe the missing parts (e.g. for color calibration and deskew) can be 
taken from this code?

Best,

Thomas
