Just updated to Suse 11.3, in past versions, including 11.2 I could activate my Epson parallel scanner this way:
Modify this file removing the ‘#’ form the line ‘#epson’
/etc/sane.d/dll.conf
Modify this file to indicate which port to use, like this:
/etc/sane.d/epson.conf
epson.conf
here are some examples for how to configure the EPSON backend
SCSI scanner:
scsi EPSON
for the GT-6500:
scsi “EPSON SC”
Parallel port scanner:
#pio 0x278
pio 0x378
#pio 0x3BC
It doesn’t work anymor, the parallel port is apparently active since I can do:
ls -l /dev/lp0
And I get:
-rw-r–r-- 1 root root 12 Dec 22 19:51 /dev/lp0
Help ?
