Hi,

I think it's not possible simply to copy the Canon profile. To make it
work, you need to know the register settings i.e master clock setting.
For this sheet-fed device also some more changes in the code
are necessary to make the feeding stuff work...

You are right ;-)

Hmm, I'm afraid, that this is not very useful.

The problem is, that we need to know how the motor is controlled and
the correct register settings. You might try and snoop at the USB
traffic between the scanner and Windoze...

Ciao,
