Hi all,<br>
<p>
I haven't seen any mention of a backend for the Minolta QuickScan35,<br>
either as an actual, existing thing or even as a gleam in someone's<br>
eye.<br>
<p>
Therefore, unless someone can tell me why I shouldn't bother, I'd like<br>
to try to write one, since I'm already the proud owner of this fine<br>
scanner.<br>
<p>
Does anyone have any general advice? I've not done any SCSI<br>
programming before, and I know nothing about what kind of messages to<br>
expect coming out of this thing. In general, are different brands of<br>
scanners essentially similar (so that I might reasonably start with<br>
the existing backend for, say, the Nikon Coolscan and adapt it to the<br>
Minolta), or should I expect a completely new world here?<br>
<p>
Should I even consider trying to do this without some technical specs<br>
from Minolta, and what are my best chances of getting those specs?<br>
<p>
Many thanks.<br>
<p>
David<br>
