[Request] Add support for more scanner models #126

Open jpturcotte opened 6 years ago

jpturcotte commented 6 years ago

This is a follow-up to https://github.com/opentoonz/opentoonz/issues/1039. Another person asked for extended compatibility today: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!category-topic/opentoonz_en/feature-requests/TilZB1bOeAQ. @shun-iwasawa & @masafumi-inoue How complicated would it be to add support for additional scanner models, such as the Epson GT-15000? Thank you!

About additional support of scanner model

TWAIN used in GTS is a technical standard, so any TWAIN compliant scanner model should work, but it does not seem to work. I do not know why the problem will occur except for the DS-50000. It is necessary to prepare the actual machine and the TWAIN driver corresponding to that machine and verify the operation. Since we do not have any actual machine other than DS-50000, we can not verify other scanner models.

Below is the same content in Japanese...

スキャナモデルの追加サポートについて

GTSで利用しているTWAINは技術標準なので、TWAIN対応のスキャナモデルならどれも動作するはずなのですが、そうはいかないようです。 なぜDS-50000以外で問題が起こるのかは分かりません。 実際のマシンとそのマシンに対応したTWAINドライバーを用意して動作検証する必要があります。 私たちはDS-50000以外の実際のマシンを持っていないので、他のスキャナモデルについて検証ができません。

@Orphanlast Not yet.

@masafumi-inoue Thank you for your reply! Is there anything we could test on our side to help you fix this?

My scanner doesn't work too.. both in Linux and Windows. (Sane and TWAIN) If I'm remembering right, RETAS only worked with limited Epson scanners. Same for GTS maybe?

masafumi-inoue commented 6 years ago

RETAS does not publish the source code, so I do not know how to limit the scanner. I think that the limitations of GTS and RETAS scanners are probably not the same. ... Please tell me the situation that does not work. What is the manufacturer's name (Epson?) Of scanner, model name, driver version? Does the scanner error occur when launching GTS?

Below is the same content in Japanese... RETASはソースコードを公開していないので、どのようにスキャナーを限定しているかわかりません GTSとRETASのスキャナーの限定はたぶん同じではないと思います ... 動作しない状況を教えて下さい スキャナーのメーカー名(Epson?)とモデル名、ドライバーのバージョンは何ですか GTSを立ち上げたときにスキャナーのエラーは出ますか?

sus-unn commented 6 years ago

My Scanner model is HP-Scanjet-G4010. Both in Windows and Linux, it works fine alone, but it cannot work with GTS. Using GTS in linux with it even made an scratching noise inside the scanner after the failure.

sus-unn commented 6 years ago

@masafumi-inoue Currently, what scanners work with GTS?

masafumi-inoue commented 6 years ago

We are confirmed to work in 'EPSON DS-50000' in Japan. I think that other Epson scanners will probably work
