The feedback from users have helped the SANE developers to fix problems with various backends, so with each release of the SANE backends more of the MacOS X specific problems have been solved.
It works with my HP SCSI scanner, and many people have reported success with a large number of different scanners. For a complete list see the documentation on the SANE project homepage. The SANE backend libraries provide access to a large range of scanners Connected through SCSI or USB. This is a TWAIN datasource for MacOS X that aquires images using the SANE backend libraries. I was going to call it Lazarus, but that seemed too pretentious The name comes from the fact that with this program and SANE, the scanner I bought was able to scan again. This will scan the image, and send the result to a printer. You can also use the program as a “copier”, by pressing the “Copy” button. The default application is Preview, but you can choose others with the “Choose” button. This scanned result will be opened in another application if you have that checkbox checked. The only file type that is supported currently is TIFF. The “Scan” button causes a detailed scan to be made, after you have a chance to choose the file name and location for the result. It is possible to limit the detailed scan to a selected area of the image, to save time and file size, by drag-clicking a selection rectangle across the preview image. The “Preview” button causes a low-resolution scan to be made and displayed in the window. It then interrogates the selected scanner for available options, and populates the spinners and pop-ups with the options available for the given scanner. It searches for scanners, putting the results into a pop-up at the top of the window ( see screen shot ). The resulting program runs the command-line utilities for you. I decided to make a GUI shell to interface with the command-line utilities, and I did this using RealBasic. The trouble was that the SANE utilities are all command-line, and I got tired of typing. I had this problem with an HP scanner I picked up at a rummage sale, and was able to Get it to work using SANE.
SILVERFAST PLUSTEK DEMO MAC OS
These were originally developed for Linux, but work on other operating systems, including Mac OS X.
SILVERFAST PLUSTEK DEMO DRIVERS
Editor: If you have an older or used scanner that you want to use, and the manufacturer doesn’t have drivers for your operating system, one solution is to use the open-source SANE routines.
