I don't see any reasons why U-type ADF unit couldn't scan even<br>that tall paper - let try to find rough edge ;) This change wasn't<br>committed to GIT yet - let's verify the concept before without<br>polluting tree with commits. The patch was generated against GIT HEAD<br>being at ccf58bf516d670ec0c7d4f17b884b21d6eaa7895.<br><br>I would like to have volunteers who:<br>- have access to HP5590 or similar device<br>- want to experiment<br>- have spare time to do that<br><br>Basically, the process of applying the patch is simple:<br>- grab source of SANE backends<br>- unpack them to any directory<br>- cd to that directory<br>- apply this patch using 'patch -p1 < sane-backend-hp5590-adf-height.diff'<br>- configure && make<br>- make install to any suitable directory
(could be default /usr/local<br>or anything you prefer)<br>- try to scan from ADF<br>- report back what maximum height scanner will allow to be set without<br>facing any error from it<br><br>Let me know if anyone needs an assistance here.<br><br>Best regards,<br>-- <br> Ilia Sotnikov<br></div></blockquote></td></tr></table><br>
