Hi,<br>
<p>
I just subscribed to the list. I have what is most certainly a <br>
Frequently Asked Question.<br>
<p>
I'm a BeOS developer, writing scanner drivers according to an API <br>
called ScannerBe that was created by Jim Moy.<br>
<p>
It's a different API than SANE, and the code I'm writing is under contract <br>
to a commercial vendor who will sell it as their product, so it won't be <br>
GPL'ed so I shouldn't use the SANE sources.<br>
<p>
However, I have found some documentation mentioned on the site that has <br>
been helpful, for example a URL to the Umax scanner protocol.<br>
<p>
My friend has a Mustek SCSI scanner to lend me, so I'd like to write a <br>
Mustek driver now. I've got an HP driver basically working, and an Apple <br>
Color OneScanner part way there.<br>
<p>
Does anyone know if the doc for the Mustek scanner is online?<br>
<p>
I'll call Mustek in the morning.<br>
<p>
Pointers to documentation for any brand of scanner is appreciated, or to <br>
the scanner manufacturers developer support if I have to get it direct from <br>
them - some manufacturers require a nondisclosure.<br>
<p>
I will summarize and repost where everything can be found, if you like.<br>
<p>
Info on the BeOS can be found at <a href="http://www.be.com">http://www.be.com</a><br>

Regards,<br>
