Hi,
I've got Plustek OpticPro 9636T scanner with has parallel port and an laptop with Ubuntu 9.04 and no parallel port - only USB. I've tried two cables to connect one to each other and it's hasn't work. One cable is usb-serial and serial-parallel converter (two parts I can disconnect) with is visible in sane-find-scanner and reported as
Code:
found USB scanner (vendor=0x067b [Prolific Technology Inc.], product=0x2303 [USB-Serial Controller]) at libusb:004:017
(note that it is cable name, not scanner)
Second cable is direct usb-parallel, but in properties has part:
Code:
Interface Descriptor:
bInterfaceClass 7 Printer
bInterfaceSubClass 1 Printer
bInterfaceProtocol 2 Bidirectional
and sane-find-scanner don't see it.
In both cases scaneimage -L and xsane reports no scanner found.
The line plustek_pp in dll.conf is uncommented, I've tried some device names in plustek_pp.conf such as:
Code:
parallel:libusb:005:014
, or
Code:
parallel:/dev/serial/by-id/usb-Prolific_Technology_Inc._USB-Serial_Controller-if00-port0
but it doesn't help.
What else I can try? How to set up this scanner?
