Brilliant, you're a genius. Well, maybe not since you just broke your
scanner. But, what this means is that you can use the protocol that I have
already worked out to support 630U (and 330U as well). All you need to do
is
figure out how to use that GL640 chip. Hopefully it will be a simple
encapsulating thing.
Good luck, let me know if you get stuck and I'll help you as much as I can.
