Hello SANE people,<BR>
<BR>
I have a Fujitsu fi-5110eox ADF scanner that I use on Ubuntu 8.04 with scanimage and the fujitsu backend (both version 1.0.19). A couple of questions:<BR>
<BR>
1.<BR>
The 5110 has a couple of paper guides that are adjusted symmetrically, so that the paper is centered with respect to the scanner's vertical center axis. According to the sane-fujitsu man page the pagewidth option is used by the scanner to determine centering of scan coordinates. <BR>
<BR>
Am I correct in assuming that as long as you correctly set the pagewidth option, (tl-x, tl-y) = (0, 0) is always at the top left corner of the inserted sheet? Because that is not what I get, as seen from the attached example of scanning an A5 page:<BR>
<BR>
scanimage --pagewidth=148 --pageheight=210 -t 0 -l 0 -x 148 -y 210 --resolution=150 --source='ADF Front' > out.pnm<BR>
<BR>
It looks as if the horisontal reference is at the extreme left of the scanning area. Is this a bug? If not, what is the purpose of the pagewidth option?<BR>
<BR>
2.<BR>
According to scanimage --help, the scanner accepts a --pageheight of up to 863.489 mm. Then why is the max value for -t and -y reported to be only 279.364 mm? (This value corresponds to 'letter' format?) <BR>
<BR>
Thank you in advance.<BR>
<BR>
Best regards,<BR>
