Hi !<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; Is there support for non-SCSI scanners? </i><br>
Not yet. Most of the non-SCSI-scanners are very poorly documented.<br>
Some time I will probably write a LHSII-bridge which would allow<br>
the handscanners which follow the standard Linux HandScanner Ioctl<br>
Interface to be used with SANE.<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; I see that there is support for various models of scsi-scanners, </i><br>
<i>&gt; but it's nowhere stated explicitely that only scsi scanners are supported.</i><br>
<i>&gt; I have a Mustek Paragon 600 II N.</i><br>
<p>
Yes. This is because the other versions (parallel, serial, ...) are normally<br>
documented not very well. There is no reason why it could be impossible to<br>
write a SANE driver for other than SCSI scanners, but the companies using<br>
SCSI seem to be professional enough not to deem a simple protocol to be a<br>
trade secret.<br>
