Scanners not supported by SANE

Manufacturer and model

Pacific Image Electronics (PIE) Primefilm 1800u

Bus type

USB

Vendor ID

0x05e3

Product ID

0x0120

Chipset

Looks like a paralellport-over-USB protocoll. See this sane-devel article and this website for details.

Was reported to use GeneScan II GL841 chipset but as the descriptor says "USB 1.0" that sounds rather strange.

Comments

USB descriptor looks very similar to Genius Colorpage Vivid III (USB) and Visioneer Onetouch 4400.

Want to add or correct information?

If anything is wrong or missing on this page please file a bug report or use the the form for adding an unsupported device.

If you own an unsupported scanner, please send as much information as possible. Especially the output of sane-find-scanner -v -v and/or cat /proc/scsi/scsi (for SCSI scanners) or cat /proc/bus/usb/devices (for USB scanners) can help. If you dare to open the scanner, have a look at the text that's printed on the chips. That may help to identify the chipset. If you know that the scanner is similar to another one (e.g. supported by the same Windows driver), please also mention this fact.

Information for Manufacturers

Are you a manufacturer or vendor of scanners and one of your scanners is not supported by SANE yet? In this case please have a look at our information for manufacturers.
