The backend which comes with the distributions does not yet recognize<br>
this model. You can download a newer release from<br>
<p>
<a href="ftp://ftp.muc.de/people/bernds/mtek2">ftp://ftp.muc.de/people/bernds/mtek2</a> .<br>
<p>
However, be cautious. Some people with a Phantom 336cx (which is obviously<br>
more or less the same like the Slimscan C3) have reported, that the<br>
scanner has an offset at the beginning of a scan and then scans beyond the<br>
bottom of the scan area, and the scanhead hits the bottom of the device.<br>
<p>
So, keep your hand near the poweroff button, when you try it.<br>
<p>
<i>&gt; Mmm. Again, interesting.</i><br>
<i>&gt; </i><br>
<i>&gt; My question is: Does this mean that SANE, which can at least touch the</i><br>
<i>&gt; scanner, is infact incompatible with it? Is there any development along</i><br>
<i>&gt; these lines and if I am not doing something extremely dumb and</i><br>
<i>&gt; overlooking a obvious thing .... if it happens that this device is not</i><br>
<i>&gt; yet supported, is there anyway I can contribute information or data so</i><br>
<i>&gt; that one can be developed?</i><br>
<p>
I am working on it, but do not know yet, when it will be readyi, and<br>
will probably need some help, because I don't have such a model.<br>
