Hello Tom,
I am working with a Bell & Howell 8080d trying to get the sane-bh
backend to work. Initially scanimage didn't recognize the 'COPISCAN
8080D' because it was looking for 'COPISCAN II'. I changed your patch
to reflect the pattern 'COPISCAN' which is found in both. I am still
failing with scanimage at the point where it want the autoborder
information from the scanner. I tried saying no autoborder but then it
had a 'not enough memory' problem. Following is some output from debug
of the scanimage command:
[bh] sane_start called
[bh] get_parameters called
[bh] get_parameters: format=0, pixels/line=4704, bytes/line=588,
lines=64000, dpi=400

I have some C programming experience. If I could get a manual for the
scanner from Bell & Howell, I might be able to tune up the code to work
with this scanner too. Did you get your manual directly from Bell &
Howell? Is there a technical person at Bell & Howell I could contact to
order a manual? I will be glad to publish any additional code I create
so you can add it to your work.
Any help you can give me will be appreciated. Thanks.
