Another hard way to do it is take a close look at the twain driver that
|
|
<BR>
|
|
you already have. It might be possible to write some sort of a bridge
|
|
<BR>
|
|
between Windows 2000 and that driver. I.e. turn existing twain driver into
|
|
<BR>
|
|
a library, write a generic WDM driver for windows and then a glue
|
|
<BR>
|
|
application that interfaces all together.
|
|
<BR>
|
|
<P>Having source code is nice, but there is still lots of stuff one can
|
|
<BR>
|
|
do with a binary.

|
|
<EM>> I'm trying to resolve a very serious and expensive problem. My
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> company is Northrop Grumman and we're a government Defense
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> Contractor. Several years ago we purchased for the government,
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> several thousand Logitech Pagescan Color scanners (parallel port
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> version) for a contract we were working. About two years ago
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> Logitech made the business decision to leave the scanner business and
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> henceforth, sold their scanner patent to a company called Storm
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> Technologies. Some time later, Storm Technologies filed for
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> bankruptcy and went out of business -- leaving no support for the
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> scanner.
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>>
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> About a year ago the project decided to upgrade the PC platform to
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> Windows 2000. A number of pretest measures were taken to ensure the
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> software application was compatible with the W2000 upgrade. But
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> unfortunately, no one bothered to verify beforehand that the scanner
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> would operate properly. Now, to our misfortune, we find it would
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> not! Apparently, the device driver is no longer compatible.
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>>
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> Logitech was (and as far as I know, still is) part of the original
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> TWAIN consortium. Several persons have said to me that it may be
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> possible that there is a TWAIN driver that can be used as a driver
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> for the Logitech Pagescan Color scanner. Is this the case? If not,
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> then is it possible that the specifications for designing a new
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> driver for the scanner for Windows 2000 might be acquired through the
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> TWAIN Working Group? If no to both of these questions, is there any
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> way that I can possibly find a copy of the driver specifications
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> needed to develop a driver for this device. Please not that Logitech
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> has already told me that they no longer support the device and Storm
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> Technologies is now defunct.
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>>
|
|
</EM><BR>
|
|
<EM>> I appreciate your assistance.
