Hello,
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>Glenn Ramsey and me wrote a scanning application for the Microtek 3600
|
||
<BR>
|
||
USB scanner. It is pure reverse engineering, since we got no information
|
||
<BR>
|
||
at all from Microtek until now. Thus the driver uses very much magic
|
||
<BR>
|
||
control values. But it works for at least Glenn and me. And if You test
|
||
<BR>
|
||
it with us, we can make it just better.
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>For now the tool can
|
||
<BR>
|
||
- safely return the scanner slider to home position
|
||
<BR>
|
||
- scan in RGB, gray, line mode and halftone (error diffusion)
|
||
<BR>
|
||
- scan in 75, 100, 200, 300, 600 DPI
|
||
<BR>
|
||
- produce PBM files (P4,P5,P6)
|
||
<BR>
|
||
- control brightness and contrast
|
||
<BR>
|
||
- scan an arbitrary window
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P> See <A HREF="http://sm3600.sourceforge.net/">http://sm3600.sourceforge.net/</A>
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>There still is a lot to do, but well, we are on the verge to convert
|
||
<BR>
|
||
this application to a "full" SANE backend. I see no real problem with
|
||
<BR>
|
||
this. But...
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>I have no real vision, how to build a shared SANE backend module. The I
|
||
<BR>
|
||
can look up some source code aspects from the existing backends, and
|
||
<BR>
|
||
from the SANE API doc. This is quite fine.
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>The special SANE building process is not very clear for me, so I ask the
|
||
<BR>
|
||
humble question, if You have any hints for us, how to make it.
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>Our source consists of several modules (since the scanner is very dumb)
|
||
<BR>
|
||
and is normally linked against USBLIB. If it is possible, I would like
|
||
<BR>
|
||
to have it apart from the SANE distribution, until it gets more
|
||
<BR>
|
||
stabilised and (perhaps) de-modulized.
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>So we will apprechiate any information pointer for SANE integrations
|
||
<BR>
|
||
aspects, especially how to
|
||
<BR>
|
||
- link the backend as a SANE DLL module
|
||
<BR>
|
||
- install the additional backend by hand
|
||
<BR>
|
||
- address the usbfs root access issues in a sensible manner.
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>Please let me know, if You have any experiences handy, that can give us
|
||
<BR>
|
||
a jump start. There is a real chance, to get a working (alpha) driver
|
||
<BR>
|
||
for the sm3600 in the near future. Every contribution is apprechiated!
|
||
<BR>
|
||
<P>Mit freundlichen Gruessen / Yours sincerely
