Hello<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
I included and tested a patch that was sent to me by Ian R. Justman.<br>
|
||
This patch allows the backend to scan when the underlying hardware is<br>
|
||
the ColorOneScanner and I suspect that may also help with the<br>
|
||
OneScanner. It doesn't break the AppleScanner. I stressed it during the<br>
|
||
weekend.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
The problem with the Apple Scanners lies mostly to the quantization<br>
|
||
algorithm that is used by the underlying hardware. Only the<br>
|
||
ColorOneScanner has well documented quantization methods although I<br>
|
||
hadn't implement them mainly due to the lack of hardware. The other 2<br>
|
||
models needs extreme experimentation in order to guess the algorithm.<br>
|
||
You have practically to reverse engineer the internal algorithm of the<br>
|
||
scanner in order to give correct info to the SANE backend. At least<br>
|
||
these scanners looks robust enough not to explode :-) when out of bounds<br>
|
||
scanning region is specified. Mine for example refuses to scan until you<br>
|
||
specify a valid region. So the<br>
|
||
current status is:<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
AppleScanner :Fully functional.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
OneScanner :It may scan.<br>
|
||
You may have quantization problems.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
ColorOneScanner :It will scan in non color modes.<br>
|
||
You may have quantization problems.<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Quantization problems:<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
When you have quantization problems means that the SANE backend could<br>
|
||
not calculate correctly the number of pixels in X or Y direction (mostly<br>
|
||
in X). This results to unexpected round offs while the SANE may wait<br>
|
||
bigger/smaller image and that may lead to undesired warnings and cropped<br>
|
||
images. A cropped image is most possible a shifted image also. As Ian R.<br>
|
||
Justman said:<br>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<i>> No warnings, no cropped images, but the quantization algorithms introduce</i><br>
|
||
<i>> some really neat effects when there are rounding problems. One mode I</i><br>
|
||
<i>> tried does work right, but it yields a negative image. Otherwise, other</i><br>
|
||
<i>> modes look like a horizontally-rolling picture on a TV set.</i><br>
