Chris&gt; Hi ! I ' ve recently bought bought a Mustek ScanEpxress<br>
Chris&gt; 12000SP, because I thought it would be compatble to the<br>
Chris&gt; 1200SP. (1200x600, 30bit, SCSI) Bad mistake. The kernel and<br>
Chris&gt; ./find-scanner report it as "SCANNER Rev.1.01", but the<br>
Chris&gt; backend does not recognize it. So tried to 'strcpy' a couple<br>
Chris&gt; of scanners (MFS-12000SP, CX, ...). With<br>
Chris&gt; SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK=128, I can see that the connection to the<br>
Chris&gt; scanner is established, but it quits scanning<br>
Chris&gt; immediately. (Not even one line, Out of memory, 0 bytes<br>
Chris&gt; read). SCSI-Buffers is increased from 32k to 128k.<br>
<p>
The out of memory most likely occurs due to get_image_status ()<br>
getting bad values for the # of bytes per line etc.<br>
<p>
Chris&gt; Kernel &amp;<br>
Chris&gt; Sane recompiled. It seems that the scanner tries to read<br>
Chris&gt; several lines to the SCSI buffer and quits, when this buffer<br>
Chris&gt; is full. Is there a chance make the scanner work?<br>
<p>
Your best bet right now would be to try to guess or reverse-engineer<br>
the changes in the ScanExpress. My recent inquiries to Mustek Taiwan<br>
regarding more docs have not been successful. But if more people keep<br>
asking for docs, someone might just get lucky.<br>
