But i am under the impression that "twain" is a higher level API which applies to all sort of hw interfaces (SCSI, dedicated parallel and serial as in the old hand scanners, etc.) whereas you need to know how to use the hardware to talk to the scanner. I suggest that you look first at the parallel port bus code ("ppb" or so) probably in -current. cheers luigi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-multimedia" in the body of the message
