Hi All,<br>
<p>
I've been working on a "new improved" HP backend for SANE.<br>
<p>
It's been more or less working for me for a few weeks now.<br>
<p>
I have suddenly found myself without much time to work on it,<br>
and some people have expressed interest in it, so I though<br>
I'd make it available.<br>
<p>
Warning: it's still very alpha --- it's poorly documented --- and, as<br>
noted above, I don't have a lot of time to work on it right now.<br>
<p>
It does support custom gamma-maps, and several other nifty<br>
ScanJet features, which aren't available in the old backend.<br>
It might (should?) work with all SCSI ScanJets: II{p,c,cx}, {3,4}{c,p},<br>
and 5p. I've only tested in on my 5p though.<br>
<p>
If you're interested, I've made it available as a patch on<br>
the recent sane-0.68:<br>
<p>
<a href="ftp://irving.apl.washington.edu/pub/sane/sane-0.68-newhp.patch.README">ftp://irving.apl.washington.edu/pub/sane/sane-0.68-newhp.patch.README</a><br>
<a href="ftp://irving.apl.washington.edu/pub/sane/sane-0.68-newhp.patch.gz">ftp://irving.apl.washington.edu/pub/sane/sane-0.68-newhp.patch.gz</a><br>
<p>
(Just in case you're worried, the patch leaves the old 'hp' backend<br>
in place, and adds, in addition, my new 'newhp' backend --- so<br>
you can choose between the two at run time.)<br>
