Umax_pp scanners not supported?

[mcuddy]

I have a HP ScanJet 3200C (Clone of Umax 1200p/2000p) and have been trying to set up Gentoo for scanning.

Now that I have my system set up with all of the requirements.. PP support, ppdev, chmod 777 on parport0, the newest sane backend, etc, I found a post that says the Umax 1200 has not worked since kernel 2.4.18. I have found no success stories after that.

If the scanner is supported, maybee someone could help me...

I cannot say I tried everything, but there is nothing I know of left to try...

[Sardien]

hello! i've also got a 3200c and the need has arisen to connect it to my PC (i hardly _ever_ use it) which now runs Gentoo (last time i used it was 9 months ago when i still ran windows).

Going to try to get it to work and will post my findings.



Kind Regards,

Richard

[Sardien]

Ok i tried a bit (ok, a tiny bit) but I was running out of time (the document to be scanned was needed urgently) so I relented I plugged the scanner into my old win98se notebook

it's a pity that sometimes hardware can be so difficult for a newbie to get to work on linux :/
anyways it's all good i got my document scanned in the end

sorry that i couldn't be of more help to the 3200c-on-linux issue though.

Perhaps there is a problem with the sane-backend ebuild. When I emerge it, I do not get the umax_pp program compiled. Prehaps this is a bug and needs a bug report? (btw, the last version I tried was v. 1.0.17
