<i>&gt; Andreas&gt; patch for 06000 SP-scanner) runs very slow but the images</i><br>
^^^^^^^^^<br>
Set SG_BIG_BUFF in /usr/include/scsi/sg.h to 1024*128 - 512. <br>
This is the largest possible size to set. A larger buffer could<br>
dramatically decrease start/stop overhead, but I don't know where<br>
to get more bytes :-(<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; Andreas&gt; Another problem is in the preview-window. If I try to scan</i><br>
<i>&gt; Andreas&gt; a preview-image the scanner starts to scan from the top</i><br>
<i>&gt; Andreas&gt; till the bottom. But arriving at the bottom the head of the</i><br>
<i>&gt; Andreas&gt; scanner stops while the LED at the front of the scanner is</i><br>
<i>&gt; Andreas&gt; still blinking. Then nothing more happens and the only way</i><br>
<i>&gt; Andreas&gt; to stop the scanner and to reset sane is to turn the</i><br>
<i>&gt; Andreas&gt; scanner off, delete the modules and then start all</i><br>
<p>
This sounds like the "scanner suicide problem" with mustek scanners.<br>
If you hear a strange noise then you should immediately turn off the<br>
scanner. Last year I had 600 II SP which destroyed itself this way<br>
(under NT) because Mustek seems to ignore the need for end position<br>
sensors. <br>
With the 1200SP this can happen, too, but this scanner seems to be more<br>
robust.<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; (a) The height of the scanner is not correct. At present, mustek.c defines</i><br>
<i>&gt; the height to be 360mm for your scanner type. If that's not correct,</i><br>
<i>&gt; could you measure the width and height of the scan area and let me know?</i><br>
<i>&gt; (you could also experiment/change with the width and height as defined</i><br>
<i>&gt; around line 339 in backend/mustek.c).</i><br>
<p>
<p>
Sometimes the scanner can be confused after aborting a scan, but at<br>
present I could not reproduce this.<br>
