TWAIN-SANE Scanner Drivers for Mac OS X

Posted by timothy on from the scan-in-your-love-letters-before-burning dept.

ubiquitin writes "The MacGIMP site has a story about TWAIN-SANE, which is a TWAIN datasource for Mac OS X that lets you use the SANE backend libraries. It means that most if not all of the the SANE project's long list of supported hardware can now be used on Mac OS X."

  1. Still has bugs to work out... by DLWormwood · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Having finally found a decent driver(?) for my CanoScan 656, I installed all the packages. While GraphicConverter acknowledges SANE, and the sane-find-scanner CLI tool detects my scanner, the scanimage command doesn't work. How the sane-find-scanner tool could work but not scanimage escapes me...
