I agree to Oliver, I also think the firmware is the issue. Somewhere in
<BR>
this list I read about upgrading the firmware but I don't remember for
<BR>
which scanner model this was. But I think it was at least for a Microtek
<BR>
scanner. Someone opened his scanner an read out the contens of his
<BR>
(correct) firmware eprom. Then it is possible to burn eproms for other
<BR>
scanners.
<BR>
The other way would be checking the communication with the Windows driver
<BR>
and see what they do with this command. Then perhaps it would be possible
<BR>
to make a workaround for SANE.

<EM>&gt; &gt; Hi Oliver,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; Where does this leave things? Am I stuck without any resolution?
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; Should I return my scanner or can I hope that there may be
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; a solution soon. (I don't run windows either).

<EM>&gt; &gt;

<EM>&gt; &gt; Thanks,

<EM>&gt; I don't know. It seems to me that your scanner has a briken firmware.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; A work around may or may not be possible.

<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Sorry
