The sane-umax library implements a SANE backend that provides acces to several UMAX-SCSI-scanners. Parallel- and USB- scanners are not supported!
Here is a list of the UMAX-scanners:

# There is no UTA available for the Vista T630, the UTA-V6 is limited supported, if you have problems with your Vista T630 scanner and you have a UTA-V6 connected, try without UTA! ## 10/30 bits/pixel are used internally, the output bit depth is 8/24 bits/pixel
The old UMAX scanners often make problems. That may have to do with the firmware version. The first firmware versions are not compatible with Windows95, so I think they will not work with this driver too. UMAX suggests to use the following firmware versions for Windows 95:
Suggested firmware versions for old UMAX scanners Name suggested firmware version
(read on UMAX's german website)last firmware version Vista VT600 use the UC630 firmware (2.8) ? Vista T630 -- 1.5 UC630 ### 2.8 2.8 UC840 1.6 1.6 UC1200S 2.5 2.5 UC1200SE -- 3.3 UC1260 1.6 1.6 ### The UC630 can not be upgraded if the last 4 digits of the serial number are less than 1000!
Here you can find informations about firmware versions of UMAX scanners.
If you own a UMAX-scanner other than the ones listed above, it may work with SANE. It depends on the informations the scanner returns to the umax-backend. If the data-block is large enough, the backend prints a warning and continues, but it is possible that not everything works fine. I suggest you hold one hand on the power-button of the scanner while you try the first scans!
