 XSane 0.999Hello,
What a surprise! I was sure it wouldn't work but I tried and...
...my HP DeskJet Ink Advantage 3635 scanner did a very first preview!
I thought the biggest chance is to connect some scanner with USB.
There are plenty second hand, cheap devices but I realized that I already have one. Then I read that only network connected HP devices are utilized. I was sure something wouldn't work this way :-P
It wasn't detected automatically so I had to connect the device with my router, find out what IP it has and choose its name in a long list of Hpaio backend. Then I inserted IP address and start XSane. I had no time to play more but I did a fast preview and it worked. I have to do more tests of course...
Thanks, Edgar!

Re: XSane 0.999 @mr
Really good news  Did you use the tool "HPLIP-Selector" for this? It is located in the "Software" drawer. I've added an snapshot on OS4-depot. Maybe not everyone noticed this tool. |

Re: AmigaOS 4: Enhanced version of XSane 0.999 for AmiCyg... Thanks for this. Nice user interface. I tried it with my network connected HP Color Laserjet MFP M477, using a different back end in the list. (Mine's not listed.) No luck yet. But it holds promise if a back end eventually makes its way to the project.

Re: AmigaOS 4: Enhanced version of XSane 0.999 for AmiCyg... @ Paul
The problem with your HP Color Laserjet MFP M477 is, that it uses the scan protocol "SOAP2", for which HPLIP needs an external plugin. This plugin is only available in binary form for Linux, no sources are available  .I don't think that there is an other backend for this model, sorry. @all If someone wants to know, if a HP device is supported, launch the tool "HPLIP-Selector", which is included in the XSane package  |

Re: AmigaOS 4: Enhanced version of XSane 0.999 for AmiCyg... I've made some quick tests with different resolutions. Eveyrything seems very good
 , rather slow (especially high res scanning and editing such big picts) on my SAM440, but very usable. Only one problem-freez when trying to quit XSane (standalone version). No crashlog, unfortunately. SAM440 flex, 1GB, R9250. |

Re: AmigaOS 4: Enhanced version of XSane 0.999 for AmiCyg... @ mr2
Good to hear that it works for you The speed is a problem, especially on slower systems. I know, this should be better. I also have sometimes problems while shutdown a standalone launched application. Seems to be a problem of the display drivers, but I'm not sure. Does the complete system freeze? |

Yes, complete freeze. I did several tests and only when I close XSane itself, system freezes. Closing Xsever window while XSane works in standalone mode or shutting down in desktop mode does not crash. |

Re: AmigaOS 4: Enhanced version of XSane 0.999 for AmiCyg... @ mr2
Please try this: Type into an amiga shell: SetEnv SAVE "Cygnix/XSERVER_XPORT_MODE" "0" and try it again. Maybe this helps. |

Re: AmigaOS 4: Enhanced version of XSane 0.999 for AmiCyg... @ mr2
O.K. - second try: SetEnv SAVE "Cygnix/XDRIVER_USE_XSHUTDOWNTOOL" "1" Maybe this works better? If not, reset this with SetEnv SAVE "Cygnix/XDRIVER_USE_XSHUTDOWNTOOL" "0" |

Re: AmigaOS 4: Enhanced version of XSane 0.999 for AmiCyg... Hi, Edgar - very nice update, but I suppose I'm falling into the same category as Paul, my device is a HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277dw.

HP Deskjet 1050 Thnaks, but unfortuantely doesn't work with my HP DeskJet 1050. It comes up with an "I/O" error and closes.
