I have got a Colorado 1200p scanner. I downloaded the driver from Gustaf
Kroling and ... surprise !!! It seem to work.... or no ???
Well .... the driver compiled without problems (a clean compilation) in my
Mandrake 7.0.
I tried: (as root)
./pxscan
It seems to work !!!! The light switch on !!!
I tried to scan something .... a photo from my "Marrakech Hollidays" ;-)))
./pxscan -d5x5 -r100
The scanner worked. It made the scan ... or it tried to made it.
I got a "test.tiff" file. The size seems OK. I tried:
display test.tiff
And ... What i got?? A white image (with some irregularities ... but white)
I have tried lots of diferent resolutions and dimensions, the p option, the c
options, etc...
When i tried the -lon and -loff options, i observed that my scanner returns a
different id (0x06) to the spected (0x05). I added a line to pxscan.c
Conclusions:
**************
* The scan proccess stops with big images, and the programa seems to block.
* The image i get is flat-white everytime.
Thanks !!!!
P.S:
Gustaf ... can you help me to solve these problems ????
I can patch the driver if i get some information ... but i don't have a second
computer to analize the traffic in the parallel port.
