Use the ADF with the CANON_PIXMA backend
Hi All,
I'm looking for information!
With the help of a user (issue) I am fixing the CANON_PIXMA backend (free library), which is based on the proprietary SCANGEARMP2 drivers.
Below, the capabilities of the scanner provided by scanimage -A
scanimage -A -d 'canon_pixma'
scanimage: rounded value of br-x from 215.9 to 215.9
scanimage: rounded value of br-y from 279.4 to 279.4
All options specific to device `canon_pixma':
Scan Mode:
--mode Color|Gray [Color]
Selects the scan mode (e.g., lineart, monochrome, or color).
--resolution 300dpi [300]
Sets the resolution of the scanned image.
--preview[=(yes|no)] [no]
Request a preview-quality scan.
--source Flatben|ADF Duplex (Long-side Binding)|ADF Duplex (Short-side Binding) [Flatben]
Selects the scan source (such as a document-feeder).
Geometry:
-l 0..215.9mm (in steps of 1.52588e-05) [0]
Top-left x position of scan area.
-t 0..296.926mm (in steps of 1.52588e-05) [0]
Top-left y position of scan area.
-x 0..215.9mm (in steps of 1.52588e-05) [215.9]
Width of scan-area.
-y 0..296.926mm (in steps of 1.52588e-05) [279.4]
Height of scan-area.
With xsane and scanimage it is possible to use the ADF
Oddity of the driver is that there is support for ADF Dupex SSB and ADF Duplex LSB, but no support for ADF Simplex.
How do you recognize the sources in simple-scan?
