Hello Everybody,

I have got this problem: I have an  Agfa  SnapScan
1212p scanner - but I don't know how to make Debian
woody see and communicate with it.

I did a small search on "Linux Agfa SnapScan 1212"
with few results.

Can anybody tell me what I should do to get Linux to
work with the scanner ?

Thanks for any help,

Joris Huizer


I took a quick look, and it looks like that particular scanner is a parallel-port model that uses a "proprietary" protocol. AGFA will not release any specs, so there is no Linux support under SANE it appears. Here is the site I was looking at:

You might want to poke around the SANE home pages, especially under the supported scanners pages, but it doesn't look good....
