Thanks Mike, that's interesting, my Xsane ver 0.999 doesn't provide the same functionality. Where your gui has the resolution dropdown to let you select between the supported resolutions, my gui has two entries, a horizontal resolution and a vertical resolution, and both of them are disabled, so that the only way to change it is to manually changed the corresponding two lines in the configuration file. I'm now wondering whether the Epson driver is having an impact, as in order to see and use the Epson scanner xsane seems to be using the settings I put in the config file created by the install of Epson's imagescan software.
Are you able to supply the config file, or the resolution part of the config file, for your scanner, which if it is stored in the same location as it is for me, is in ~/.sane/xsane? I just wanted to see how it is set up for you and whether or not I can replicate that in my configuration.


regards,

Hi,
    Having installed imagescan from Epson, and installed sane and xsane, and edited the imagescan config file to specify the network settings of my printer all-in-one, I now have xsane finding my scanner, but this has highlighted a problem.
    Having run xsane it has created Epson:ET-3700.drc in path ~/.sane/xsane, which contains all the options used by xsane for scanning. Two of the options are for the horizontal and vertical scan resolution, which by default are set to 75. These options are reflected in the xsane gui, but they are disabled so I can't alter them from the gui, I have to edit the config file and specify the resolution I want in there.
    Where can I find documentation on the format of that xsane config file, that would tell me how I get the list of resolutions the scanner supports into that config file so that they are selectable by a dropdown in the xsane gui?

regards,
Steve
