plustek: Thread: Opticpro 4800p

Hi, I have the OpticPro 4800P, I downloaded the new plustek sane 0.36
driver, and pt_drv.o finds my 4800P.
When I untar the file in the sane directory, ./configure works fine,
when I do the make, it says

make[1]: Entering directory `/home/xcyx/sane-1.0.2/backend'
Makefile:54: *** missing separator.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/xcyx/sane-1.0.2/backend'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

If anyone can help   out, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Hi Gerhard,

Thanks for the files, it compiled nicely.  I have another question, sorry
about bothering you, I read the readme file
and it says to do a scanimage -L, when I preform this command, it says

[plustek] open: can't open /dev/pt_drv as a device
[plustek] attach: open failed: Error during device I/O

Do you know why this shows up??  I have the lines that are required in the
conf.modules, and I rebooted my computer
and it still says the msg.  Your help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you
-Rob

Hi Rob,

thank you for testing. I will fix that color inverse problem.
What about the binary and gray modes. Are these modes
inverted too ?

Gerhard

Hi Gerhard,

The Gray mode looks good, but the Binary, im not sure how it is supposed to look
like, it looks like a photocopy
from a photocopy machine, i will send you the output of the Binary mode so you can
see also, If you want me to send you any other scanned output, I will gladly do so.

Hello,

i have the following Problem: My Scanner(Plustek Optic pro 4800p) won´t work.

The driver output says:

ASIC ID = 0x88
unknown asic ID

I´ve tried to disable the IEEE1284 support in the Kernel and set the PortMode in the BOIS manually to EPP but it wont work.

my system configuartion is:

Pentium III (933) with 384 MB of RAM with Linux Kernel 2.4.17 and a normal PC-Systele Paralell Port.

What can i do?
Have you got any Idea?

PS.: The scanner works under Windoze without any Problems.


with best reguards, T.wiese

PLESE SEND YOUR ANSWER TO ####@####.####

Hi,

can you send me the whole debug output please?
Is there any other device attached to the scanner?

Gerhard
