[sane-devel] Fujitsu backend and iX500 scanning page longer than 14 Inches

[Matthias Löblich]

Hi,
thank you for the fast answer. The parameters are working for me :-) !

The value is "rounded" to 876.695:

scanimage --format=pnm --mode Color --source "ADF Duplex" --buffermode  On
--ald=yes --page-height=5500mm -y 5500mm --buffermode=On --resolution
150dpi --format=pnm --batch="test_crop_desk_%d" 2>simg.log

scanimage: rounded value of page-height from 5500 to 876.695
scanimage: rounded value of br-y from 5500 to 876.695

Do you see any issue if I set the values in general to the maximum. I guess
it is 876.695mm.  The scanner (ix500) stops scanning automatic if the paper
is out of the feeder.


Thanks for your support

Matthias
