<P>
I will repeat what I was told by an engineer here at Microtek. Microtek
<BR>
scanners use SCSI commands through the 1394 chipset.
<BR>
<P>I would be suprised to hear that a manufacturer has done something different
<BR>
than port their already existing technology through the 1394 chipset/port.
<BR>
<P>I'm a little over my head in this area, but I think Karl is right.

<EM>&gt; &gt; Has anybody been looking at support for the FireWire (a.k.a. i.Link,
</EM><BR>
a.k.a. i1394) bus, now that it is supported (-ish) in the 2.4 Linux kernel?
<BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; &gt; There are a copule of neat scanners with this interface that I'd like to
</EM><BR>
use.
<BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; Allan,
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; If the scanners use the SBP-2 protocol (i.e. scsi command
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; set) over 1394 then there is a driver in beta test written
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; by James Goodwin at:
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; <A HREF="http://firewire.zawa.com/sbp2/">http://firewire.zawa.com/sbp2/</A>
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt;
</EM><BR>
<EM>&gt; He mentions that it has been tested on a Epson 1394 scanner.
</EM><BR>
<P>Not quite correct: First of all it was an EPSON Expression 1600
<BR>
scanner and James has no first hand experience with this scanner -
<BR>
I have one here running with the IEEE1394 interface, and it was
<BR>
me who fixed the SBP-2 driver to allow for the EPSON scanner to
<BR>
work. EPSON is not doing anything special, so I would guess that
<BR>
ever other scanner with an IEEE-1394 interface would also work
<BR>
as long as SANE supports the SCSI version of the scanner.
