Well, after browsing through the archives of this list, I've seen<br>
two different threads about the Mustek 600 III EP Plus parallel<br>
scanner appear and disappear over the past year or so. The most<br>
recent one, from February, seemed to imply that developers were<br>
waiting for Wine to catch up to a point where TWAIN could run under<br>
it successfully and a developer could snoop the driver &lt;-&gt; scanner<br>
conversation.<br>
<p>
Is this still the status? Could this actually happen under an<br>
actual Windows install, but there are no SANE developers that have<br>
Windows installed? What needs to happen to get this clunky little<br>
scanner supported?<br>
<p>
I'm not a coder of any skill at all, so I can't contribute to this<br>
directly, but if there are milestones toward this end that I can<br>
help with, I'd be glad to -- it's in my (and my company's) interest<br>
for me to stop booting back to Win95 just to scan; this can also<br>
free up a Photoshop license for us to use elsewhere.<br>
<p>
So, how can I get this ball rolling? Whom can I help, and in what<br>
way(s)? I follow directions well, so if a developer wants to send<br>
me info on how to capture the scanner's convo under Windows, I can<br>
do that. Or anything. Do tell.<br>
<p>
Thanks in advance.<br>
