Can't get Astraslim 1200SE to work
	2006-08-21 21:02:54
Hi all, I've googled for an answer and searched the mailinglist, but didn't find an answer. So I now dare to post my problem here and hope someone can help me. I'm using Suse 10.1 with Sane 1.0.18 and a Umax AstraSlim 1200Se USB scanner. When I use sane-find-scanner I get the following info returned: found USB scanner (vendor=0x05d8, product=0x4010 [USB Scanner], chip=GT-6816) at libusb:003:004   # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by   # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage. But scanimage -L returns that there was no scanner detected. This happens when I do this as a normal user, and as root. The file artec_eplus48u.conf contains this: # ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- # This section is for the UMAX AstraSlim 1200 SE # Note, that the name of the firmware file is called 1200.usb for # this device usb 0x05d8 0x4010 option artecFirmwareFile /usr/share/sane/artec_eplus48u/1200.usb option vendorString "UMAX" option modelString "AstraSlim 1200 SE" # ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- And the file 1200.usb is in the right directorie. I've put it there as root (is that correct?) I just can't get the thing to work. Has someone succeeded to get this scanner to work with sane? Thanx. Ed.
