Public bug reported: Binary package hint: simple-scan
At the moment I'm using my "Fujitsu ScanSnap S1500" document scanner with gscan2pdf. It works out of the box with Linux. I tested simple-scan today and scanned one document (A4). But for my scanner I need the option the set the page size because my scanner uses the wrong default size (not A4). So every scanned page is cropped on the bottom and it is a little to wide (as you can see on the screenshot) This are the commands where I find out which extra options my scanner provides and it shows me the default option too. be...@lucid-desktop:~$ scanadf -L device `fujitsu:ScanSnap S1500:303564' is a FUJITSU ScanSnap S1500 scanner be...@lucid-desktop:~$ scanadf --help -d "fujitsu:ScanSnap S1500:303564" Usage: scanadf [OPTION]... Start image acquisition on a scanner device and write image data to output files. [ -d | --device-name <device> ] use a given scanner device. [ -h | --help ] display this help message and exit. [ -L | --list-devices ] show available scanner devices. [ -v | --verbose ] give even more status messages. [ -V | --version ] print version information. [ -N | --no-overwrite ] don't overwrite existing files. [ -o | --output-file <name> ] name of file to write image data (%d replacement in output file name). [ -S | --scan-script <name> ] name of script to run after every scan. [ --script-wait ] wait for scripts to finish before exit [ -s | --start-count <num> ] page count of first scanned image. [ -e | --end-count <num> ] last page number to scan. [ -r | --raw ] write raw image data to file. Options specific to device `fujitsu:ScanSnap S1500:303564': Standard: --source ADF Front|ADF Back|ADF Duplex [ADF Front] Selects the scan source (such as a document-feeder). --mode Lineart|Halftone|Gray|Color [Lineart] Selects the scan mode (e.g., lineart, monochrome, or color). --resolution 50..600dpi (in steps of 1) [600] Sets the horizontal resolution of the scanned image. --y-resolution 50..600dpi (in steps of 1) [600] Sets the vertical resolution of the scanned image. Geometry: -l 0..215.872mm (in steps of 0.0211639) [0] Top-left x position of scan area. -t 0..279.364mm (in steps of 0.0211639) [0] Top-left y position of scan area. -x 0..215.872mm (in steps of 0.0211639) [215.872] Width of scan-area. -y 0..279.364mm (in steps of 0.0211639) [279.364] Height of scan-area. --page-width 0..221.121mm (in steps of 0.0211639) [215.872] Specifies the width of the media. Required for automatic centering of sheet-fed scans. --page-height 0..876.695mm (in steps of 0.0211639) [279.364] Specifies the height of the media. Enhancement: ............. there are more option but you can see the page-width and page-height above. The size of an A4 paper is 210 × 297 So you can see that this size differs from 215.872 x 279.364. So I need an option to manually set the page size for the scanner ProblemType: Bug Architecture: i386 Date: Wed Mar 10 20:47:35 2010 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 InstallationMedia: Error: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/log/installer/media-info' Lsusb: Bus 003 Device 002: ID 093a:2500 Pixart Imaging, Inc.
