Is such a sniffer available?
I was just getting ready to build a cable support such a
sniffer,
and thought I would have to write one myself.
What I was planning was something very simple (and general).
Plug the scanner into one parallel port, the computer
running
the manufacturer supplied driver/application, and the
sniffing
computer reading from one lp-port (using the std lp driver),
writing to the second lp-port and to std output.
I was going to try a scripting language like perl.
(Actually, I am planning to use a parallel "laplink" cable
to start with, of course in the general case a special cable
would be necessary.)
> If you are lucky, the driver might run under WINE which support port sniffing.
Is this done now?
Last I heard (a couple weeks ago) this had not been
uploaded/integrated.
