<br>
Can't confirm this - with me, using the iscan gui, preview starts
almost immediately. However if you are in a network and saned is
running it may take some time till saned has identified all available
scanners and is presenting a selection list.

<br>
Thanks for your good news :-)<br>
I'm not in a network: I will dedicate an old linux pc to gt-2500.<br>

are using iscan you can handle the button (in Xsane it doesn't work)

Perfect.<br>

sane able to automatically

A4-plane with a command line arguments?

<br>
You will need arguments in scanimage, scanadf etc - else the GT-2500
will work in flatbed mode.
<br>

<br>
Do you know what append if there are no pages in the ADF and I use the
ADF argument?<br>

<blockquote cite="mid:op.vfdhmkmmibo4fx@ambo2.site" type="cite">Note,
to run the GT-2500 you will need the epkowa backend. It isn't part of
the SANE drivers, but it perfectly fits in. You can get it here:

<br>
Ok, I didn't know it<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<blockquote cite="mid:op.vfdhmkmmibo4fx@ambo2.site" type="cite">In
summary I would say the GT-2500 is a very recommendable machine,
especially with heavy duty jobs when hundreds of sheets have to be
scanned in one swoop.
<br>
</blockquote>
<br>
I care about one single sheet job (with or without ADF); here it is the
most common case.<br>
Our needs are:<br>
- A4 planed (ADF probably will be used, but it is not necessary)<br>
- very fast B/W single shoot scan in medium/low quality (300dpi?) for
office documents<br>
- Sane compatibility. <br>
<br>
I think/hope GT-2500 can work fine for us :-) Other scanners don't give
us these
