Revision as of 19:32, 4 January 2021

USB scanners in ArcaOS and OS/2 works using USBRESMG.SYS as a driver. This is the OS/2 USB Resource Manager driver that works to connect some USB devices.

Tame/2 has this driver within it's installer, but ArcaOS may have a newer version available on x:\OS2\BOOT.

For my test I will try to make an Epson Multi function printer that has an USB scanner.

I plugged the Epson L4150 multifuntion printer first and did a "lsusb" just to be sure the device is recognized as an USB device. It showed me:

[X:\]lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 04b8:1135 Seiko Epson Corp.


Step
Install Tame/2. I'm using Paul Smedly's repacked version.

Since this machine has ArcaOS with some update USB drivers I didn't isntall USBRES and USBCALLS. Arca Noae already has it.
