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 SANE.
First you need to determine the 'backend' that SANE needs for your scanner. You get this from 'Scanimage -L'. Example:
device `snapscan:libusb:001:002' is a EPSON EPSON Scanner1 flatbed scanner device `epson2:net:192.168.21.201' is a Epson PID 110B flatbed scanner
- 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.
