<P><EM>&gt; What do you think of only keeping 3 kinds of models (SNAPSCAN300 -

</EM><BR>
<P>Would it make sense to list the capabilities of the scanner, rather

than model categories?
<BR>
<P>e.g. something like
<BR>
scanner.dpi = 600;
<BR>
scanner.buffer = 128*1024;
<BR>
scanner.depth = 10;
<BR>
<P>Or is this already done? I have only looked at the code briefly, so I
<BR>
may be way off base here. Then again, if the 3 model categories
<BR>
really do cover all the possibilities, then it's fine as-is.
<BR>
<P>I am just imagining having to add a fourth category at a later stage,
<BR>
with a new case for every switch, then a fifth...
<BR>
<P><P><EM>&gt; I will probably change the backend to automatically detect USB
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; models too and so suppress the #define USB_STUFF.
</EM><BR>
<P>That would be great. As it stands, I have to hand-edit the source
<BR>
code to uncomment the USB line, hoping I don't uncomment the wrong
<BR>
line by mistake and mess up something else. A 'configure' switch
<BR>
would do just as well, if it's too messy for a simple run-time
<BR>
detection. (e.g. configure --enable-snapscan-usb)

<P>Unfortunately, I don't know how to find out for sure whether it's SANE

that's at fault or something else in my system. I am using an

outdated experimental kernel (2.4.0-test9), though it has worked

previously with the older usb-patched sane-1.0.3.

<P>If anyone else has an AGFA Snapscan 1212U version 1, I'd like to hear
<BR>
whether the 01112000 snapscan backend works for them.
