Re: [opensuse] Linux supports parallel port scanner!

This is first draft of article:

For your information:

I have a "Plustek OpticPro 9630P" parallel port scanner and at least
this model works at least for me without any additional software
like ppscsi.

I only activated the "plustek_pp" backend in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf
and perhaps I adjusted /etc/sane.d/plustek_pp.conf (I don't remember
exactly, I tested it some time ago) and finally I set the device file
permissions so that a normal user could access it.

Therefore I suggest that you mention that at least some kind of
parallel port scanners don't need additional software (but
nevertheless need manual setup).


Kind Regards
Johannes Meixner
