But I have a bad news.. :( It doesnt work for my scanner (Colorado
Direct 9600)
I cant get the light on with it. When I type -lon, the driver thinks
the scanner light got on, but I didnt. So, when I try to scan something
the "light" move about 1cm..
When I run ./pxscan -d1x1 -r300 -v2 I get
parse_options:
dimension: 1.0x1.0 inch
resolution: 300 dpi
pxscan version 0.1
Probing port 0378
SPP port present
PS/2 bidirectional port present
EPP 1.7

Could some one run with -v2 and send me the output??
Btw, with some adjusts in the driver primax_scan-0.2 I can get the
scanner thinks he is scanning (in the primax_scan-0.2 driver) and I also
get the light on and off with pxscan.
I have two computers and a medium knowledge about C (I never programed
through the paralel port). If some one explain me how to trace the
paralel port, maybe I could get some adjusts for my scanner..
Is there someone more in this list that can't get the pxscan work with
a Direct 9600???
