<EM>&gt; shouldn't we try to merge the functionality of the &quot;sp15c&quot;, m3096g&quot;, &quot;m3091&quot;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; (re: post by Frederik Ramm), and whatever I produce for the &quot;fi-4750C&quot;.

<P>When I wrote the drivers for the m3096g and sp15c, I didn't want to break
<BR>
one working driver by adding code for the other scanner. That was the
<BR>
sole basis for having two drivers.
<BR>
<P>The two scanners have different firmware, and thus have slightly different
<BR>
command sets. Nevertheless, it seems a very good idea to merge the two
<BR>
code bodies because of the amount of common code. That was my intent,
<BR>
but alas, other things grabbed my attention.
<BR>
<P>I would welcome the effort by someone to do the dirty work, and
<BR>
since I have both of the original scanners at hand, can help with
<BR>
testing.
