Sven> Hi, a friend of mine and myself, were both trying to get a<br>
|
|
Sven> Mustek SP II but were both shipped a new model called Mustek<br>
|
|
Sven> Paragon CD II. The vendor claimed that only the name was<br>
|
|
Sven> changed and all technical details remained unchanged. This is<br>
|
|
Sven> NOT the fact! I thought it might be of interest for the<br>
|
|
Sven> developers of SANE that my friend has just crashed its new<br>
|
|
Sven> scanner by using the mustek-backend of xscanimage with it!<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
That's bad news.<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Sven> Don't misunderstand me: I don't want to bother anyone here for<br>
|
|
Sven> this. My intention is to warn you not to use (better: not to<br>
|
|
Sven> buy) this scanner unless there is a backend that knows how to<br>
|
|
Sven> handle this scanner.<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
I just sent mail to my Mustek contact. I hope this might shed some<br>
|
|
light (crossing fingers that I'll get an answer...).<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Sven> As it is suggested to buy another card for the mustek scanner<br>
|
|
Sven> like e.g. an NCR 810 we have tried to use the scanner with<br>
|
|
Sven> this card. It is correctly initialized by the kernel, the<br>
|
|
Sven> scanner is found, everythings should work just fine... When<br>
|
|
Sven> my friend started preview from xscanimage on his scanner the<br>
|
|
Sven> thing went crazy, brutally damaging the moving parts!! I don't<br>
|
|
Sven> know why exactly this happened but we are afraid, that Mustek<br>
|
|
Sven> changed the protocol of the scanner.<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Sven> So far... Has anyone of you heard of similar experiences? Do<br>
|
|
Sven> you know someone who uses this model with Linux? Any ideas how<br>
|
|
Sven> to solve this?<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There was one other report: that scanner got damaged because the scan<br>
|
|
area length was wrong. What is the SCSI id string you get for your<br>
|
|
scanner? If it is MFC-08000CZ, then this might explain the problem.<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
How did the scanner go "crazy"? Did it start scaning normally and<br>
|
|
then when it hit the end of the scan surface it got very noisy? If<br>
|
|
so, that would explain a lot.<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In any case, I'm sorry to hear that the mustek backend fried your<br>
|
|
scanner. I hope it's still under warranty and that you'll get a<br>
|
|
replacement quickly. Before wasting another scanner, could you send<br>
|
|
me the following info:<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
- SCSI id string you get at boot up (something like MFC-08000CZ)<br>
|
|
- the label on the front of the scanner<br>
|
|
- the firmware version; the best way to get this is to do something<br>
|
|
like this:<br>
|
|
<p>
|
|
SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK=2 scanimage -d mustek -h >/dev/null<br>
