I have a sp600c which is for the most part a repackaging of the sp15c. There
are some minor differences, but nothing major. Further, I am using an adaptec
2940 card to interface to the scanner. *Everything* works for me... From what
you say, it sound like the scsi negotiation is failing on the scanner
side of the bus. Corrupt firmware? Without more info, I really cannot be more
helpful... It could be the scsi card... However, I know for sure the sp15c and
all other scanners that are in that family (The sp600c) work "out of the box"
with SANE.
Give me more info so I can help.
