[sane-devel] Fwd: [Question #229575]: Simplescan problem with HP6200c Scanjet (HELP!)

[xkbigphilu278 at aol.com]

 HI,

I've been having some problems with my trusty HP scanjet 6200c. When I use simple scan it seems to work but only for half dozen scans. Then the scanner is on but simple scan software says it's not connected. The USB connection for the scanner is fine as is the power supply. Strangely, the light for the scanner remains on all the time. Simple scan doesn't want to turn it off. Unfortunately, If the light is on simple scan software will not move the scanner bar inside the scanner itself. I have to reboot my computer and go through the whole process yet again for just 6 scans. So I was wondering if you could help me. I've attached these emails for background information. 

PHILIP

Hi Michael,

No it's the same. It appears the light on the scanner which scans the
document remains on all the time. Normal operation this light goes off
each time a scan makes a pass with HP's scanning software. Simple Scan
works I believe until (light) something gets hot or locks up due to
memory issues with the scanner. Also, when I go to save the document the
list text is backward z to a instead of a to z. I'm not sure what is
going on.

PHIL
