I now remember that for W9x some options were mandatory for the scanner
|
||
<BR>
|
||
driver given with the thing (and not indicated with the box!). They can
|
||
<BR>
|
||
be got from microtek's site. The fact is that at the beginning, my PC
|
||
<BR>
|
||
used to lock up while trying to scan, with W98. At the moment the
|
||
<BR>
|
||
Phantom 330 CX works, but needs W9X, which is nomore my cup of tea. So
|
||
<BR>
|
||
if it is not worth the effort to make it working under Linux, I shall
|
||
<BR>
|
||
chuck it out some day and buy a good-linuxable one. (The only interest
|
||
<BR>
|
||
of this model was its price, less than 90 euros).

|
||
<EM>> Hi!
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>>
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> It is possible to get a Microtek 330CX to work under Linux. I had mine working
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> for a couple of months at the beginning of the year. It is unfortunatley not
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> worth the effort. I ended up buying a Mustek SE 12000SP, with which I am very
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> happy. Just don't bother using the SCSI card it comes with. An Initio 9100UW
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> does a very good job and is inexpensive. Back to the Phantom: There are still
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> some issues in the driver that make the scans come out too dark, adn they are
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> also generally reversed left for right and there are problems with the
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> positioning of previews and scan areas in xsane/xscanimage. All of these
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> problems are due to some work that needs to be done on the backend. It seems,
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> though, that the maintainer has dropped out of sight. I haven't seen an
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> announcement of a new version of the Microtek2 backend since January 2000. Bernd
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> did answer a posting here a while back, but that was about all,
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>>
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> BTW: The difficulties that Riku mentioned with the Windows drivers is one of the
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> reasons that Windows has been banned from my computer. The crashes and random
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> "Scanner doesn't want to play today" crap just got on my nerves. In Berd's
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> defense, I must say that although the Windows driver delivered better scans, the
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> Microtek2 backend never crashed in all the time I was monkeying with it. If you
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> want to lock up Windows, pull the power plug on your Phantom in the middle of a
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> scan and watch Windows croak. The Microtek2 backend just times out and exits
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> gracefully. I know this because I had a bad extension cord that caused a few
|
||
</EM><BR>
|
||
<EM>> problems:-)
