Hey Everyone,

So I have not gotten any replies outside of this one, Just curious if
there are any SANE backend developers who can add support for this
scanner? Just want a cost estimate and we can talk about the work for
it. Kind of shock there have been no replies so far.

Sincerely,

Brandon Anderson
