Well! I havn't used 'diff' before :-( (I think it is somewhere in my
computer). And there is another problem. The changes are made in the
ported backend and in this there are some very Amiga specific changes.
But the changes are really small and is listed in this mail.

I have not made the "final" solution to this problem. Since my version
of the code is to be used on M680x0 I swapped the to bytes in the 16
bit word
wordSwap(head->count);
by using this macro:
#define wordSwap(X) {u_char b;u_char* bp=(u_char*)&(X);b=*bp;*(
bp++)=*bp;*bp=b;}

As I said I have not used it on a parallel scanner and I have not corrected
the error.

The lines
if (buf[0] != TYPE_PROCESSOR
|| strncmp (buf + 8, "EPSON", 5) != 0
|| (strncmp (buf + 16, "SCANNER ", 8) != 0
&& strncmp (buf + 14, "SCANNER ", 8) != 0))
are changed to
if( (buf[0] != TYPE_PROCESSOR)
|| strncmp(buf+8,"EPSON",5)
|| (strncmp(buf+16,"SCANNER ",8)
&& strncmp(buf+14,"SCANNER ",8)
&& strncmp(buf+16,"Perfection",10)
)
)
