<P>
I am reposting this email which I sent to the list previously, as I was not
<BR>
a memer of this mailing list at the time I sent it, and it was silently
<BR>
rejected.
<BR>
<P>----------------------------------------------------------------------------
<BR>
-------------------------------------
<BR>
<P>I did post to the sane-devel mailing list, but did not get any responses.
<BR>
From looking at previous postings, it seems that not many people are
<BR>
interested in Windows/TWAIN support for sane. I hope you don't mind me
<BR>
cross posting this private discussion to the list, but I am hoping to
<BR>
stimulate some discussion on the issue.
<BR>
<P>I wish to commend Brian Macy on his work on WinSane 0.2.0.0
<BR>
&lt;URL:<A HREF="http://www.sunshinecomputing.com/winsane/">http://www.sunshinecomputing.com/winsane/</A>&gt;, but the WinSane 0.90
<BR>
version from &lt;URL:<A HREF="http://integramicro.com/winsane/">http://integramicro.com/winsane/</A>&gt; is the version most
<BR>
useful to me at this time, as it has TWAIN support.
<BR>
<P>To date, I have not been able to get it to work, but here is what I have
<BR>
found from my investigations.
<BR>
<P>Although ScanChk.exe seems to work on the command line (it finds my
<BR>
scanners), the WinSane TWAIN datasource is unable to find my scanners.
<BR>
<P>However, when I manually modify the winsane.ini file (found in C:\WINDOWS)
<BR>
to add my scanner details, they now appear in the GUI.
<BR>
<P>But, when I click Scan, I get InitScan failed (even though saned
<BR>
acknowledges the request in my logs.
<BR>
<P>I suspect the problem lies in the fact that WinSane was compiled to support
<BR>
Sane 0.73 and my linux box is running Sane 1.0.1.
<BR>
<P>The winscan.ini file implies than the winsane datasource just calls
<BR>
scanimg.exe and scanchk.exe to do its work. This may mean that if I
<BR>
replace scanimg.exe and the net backend with updated (1.0.1) versions on my
<BR>
Windows machine, it may work?
<BR>
<P>Things to try (has anyone already tried any of them)
<BR>
1) Install Sane 0.73 on my linux box
<BR>
2) Use updated versions of scanimage and the net-backend on the Windows
<BR>
machine (compiled for win32)
<BR>
<P>Comments please...
<BR>
<P>-Robert
<BR>
<P>P.S. Given that my linux IP address was 123.123.123.123 and the scanner uses
<BR>
the snapscan backend on /dev/scanner. How do I use scanimage.exe from
<BR>
Windows to do a scan?
<BR>
I thought it would be &quot;scanimage -d snapscan:123.123.123.123:/dev/scanner&quot;
<BR>
but this does not work :(
<BR>
<P><P><EM>&gt; &gt; Thanks for any help you can provide
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Just fetch the current snapshot and compile in using Cygwin. Link
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; scanimage with libsane-net, and it should work out of the box.

<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; I see from your website that you have done a win32 port of sane's
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; scanimage and am hoping you might be able to help me.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Well, it was not really a port. I just recompiled sane on windows
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; using Cygwin.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; I am trying to get WinSane 0.90 working with the sane 1.0.1 that is
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; running on my linux server.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; I noticed in the WinSane source that it was originally based on
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; version 0.73. Do I need to update to your 1.0.1 port of scanimage
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; to get this working? Since the source is not provided for the TWAIN
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; data source provided with WinSane, I am not sure if this will even
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; be possible.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; You should be aware that there is two different projects called
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; winsane. One which I never got to work and where I never got response
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; from the author, &lt;URL:<A HREF="http://integramicro.com/winsane/">http://integramicro.com/winsane/</A>&gt;. Then there
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; are &lt;URL:<A HREF="http://www.sunshinecomputing.com/winsane/">http://www.sunshinecomputing.com/winsane/</A>&gt; where I actually
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; got response from the author, but which is still not working very
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; well.
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; Thanks for any help you can provide
</EM><BR>
