<i>&gt; Hi Chris,</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; I've notice in the documentation that there could be a Transparency kit that</i><br>
<i>&gt; could be added/used with the Artec scanners.</i><br>
<p>
Yes, this is correct, it plugs into a port on the back of the scanner. I<br>
have never seen one of these kits though.<br>
<br>
<i>&gt; Basically it turn off the lamp and let you use a "overhead" type lamp to light</i><br>
<i>&gt; up the document.</i><br>
<p>
Well, sort of. The documentation for the AT3 &amp; A6000C PLUS states that for<br>
these 2 models, the lamp inside the scanner can not be turned off via<br>
software. I don't know what page it's on, but it's in section 4.4 concerning<br>
about mode select.<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; I haven't seen any reference of such feature in Sane,</i><br>
<i>&gt; How difficult would it be to add this to Sane? Something like a toggle</i><br>
<i>&gt; button to turn on/off the lamp?</i><br>
<p>
I believe some of the scanners that support turning the lamp on/off have<br>
this supported automatically in the backend, but I don't know for sure.<br>
<br>
<i>&gt; I tought that could also be used to increase life expectency of the lamps.</i><br>
<p>
Maybe for the AT6 &amp; AT12 users, but not for us lowly AT3 &amp; A6000C PLUS users<br>
according to the docs. :-|<br>
<p>
