Hello!!<br>
=======<br>
I'm not sure whether this is an english mailing list or not.<br>
Hope you will understand although my english is very bad.<br>
<p>
I have serious problems get my Mustek Paragon 600 working<br>
with sane.<br>
My Systemconfiguration looks like this:<br>
<p>
-Kernel 2.0.29 with Buffer for SCSI gerneral devices set<br>
to maximum running on a VLB 486 at 80Mhz.<br>
-The Scanner is labeled with "Mustek Paragon 600 II CD"<br>
and sane shows the following ID: MFC-06000CZ.<br>
-I'm using sane-0.65 but tried 0.66 yesterday with no<br>
improvement.<br>
<p>
First of all I tried the SCSI card which comes with the<br>
Scanner (DTC3181). It does not work at all under Linux even<br>
with the special patch for the 3181.<br>
Then I tried an old ST-01 from Seagate. It seems to work<br>
under Linux but can't deal with the scanner. The scanner<br>
starts blinking with the front LED but moves not an inch.<br>
The same occours with an old FutureDomain which is no<br>
wonder because it uses the same driver.<br>
After playing around a long time with the DTC I got<br>
rid of the damn thing and bought an Adaptec 1505 expecting<br>
to have no more trouble.<br>
But I was wrong. First of all I was a little bit confused<br>
because the Adaptec driver shows still no Modell-ID at<br>
SCSI-Startup. But since sane can determine the ID well<br>
I suppose this is ok, isn't it?<br>
I tried to scan a LineArt picture and everything seems to<br>
work well. But when I tried to scan Color or even Grayscale<br>
pictures the scanner mechanic moves to its physical end and<br>
makes the well known sound which is described in the<br>
PROBLEMS file.<br>
I can limit the scaning area to a non-dangerous value, but<br>
the image seems to be compressed in y-direction and the<br>
scaning range was always more than I have specified on<br>
the comandline. After a few experiments I recognized that<br>
there were lines dropped in the scanned image. This happens<br>
always at the same position and depends only on the setting<br>
of STRIP-HEIGHT. I suppose it happens at the end<br>
or the beginning of such a scanned block specified in<br>
mustek.conf because when I set STRIP-HEIGHT to a very<br>
small value like 0.1 the dropouts occour exact with this<br>
distance. When I do not set STRIP-HEIGH at all it happens<br>
about every 1.5 inch. It seems like the scanner scans more<br>
lines as the software expects. This lost lines are then<br>
scanned "again" what causes the errors in the scan area<br>
length calculation.<br>
I nearly forget: It happens only with higher resolutions.<br>
If I activate the backtrack option the image will be ok<br>
but the scanning process becomes unusable slow (about<br>
10 mins for two inch) and the mechanic is moving back and<br>
force all the time.<br>
<p>
I have really no idea how to fix this. Can anybody help me?<br>
A tip how to get the Adaptec 1505 with the supplied<br>
Windows-Twain-Driver working would be very useful too.<br>
<p>
Thanks a lot!!<br>
Klaus<br>
