I am writing an application that requires scanning in .net (c#
version 4.0
, Visual Studio 2010). I'm using the TWAIN
API in order to do the scanning and I have a problem with the layout feature. The following code works perfectly fine on a Microtek i800
, a CanoScan 9000F
and a Microtek Artix Scan F2
but when I run it against an Epson Perfection V700 something really strange occurs.
Even though I am setting the left margin of the layout to 0
the left edge of the image is cut off. I tried setting it to negative values but that made no difference. It seems like there is some strangeness and it is forcing it to be a film size (perhaps because I am turning the light on). If I use the tool that comes with the scanner it allows me to select a region that includes both edges (and have the light on) so it must be possible. Also, the top and bottom coordinates work perfectly fine.
So my question is...
Does anyone know of any way I can make it scan the entire width? Is there some other setting in TWAIN that I can set first to get it to forget its paper sizes perhaps? (I tried setting PaperDetectable to false too but it made no difference).
One other thing: If I do not set the layout, it still cuts off the picture on the edges (just not top and bottom) but if I also do not set the light on (or I do not set the light on but I do set the size) it does what I would expect: specifically scans the entire picture from the left most edge (but the problem is, I really need the light and the entire width of the scan - surely that isn't too much to ask...).

So, in case anyone is interested I ended up giving up on TWAIN entirely - I think it is simply not possible.
What I did instead was install:
gcc-core
, make
and libusb-win32
packages)After a whole heap of configuring, making and installing I finally was able to issue this command from the Cygwin prompt:
scanimage -t 30 -y 30 --mode Color --depth 8 --resolution 1200 --sharpness 2 --format=tiff --source TPU8x10 > out.tiff
and would you believe it out.tiff
was wide and sharp and a whole lot better than I could achieve with TWAIN.
So, it is a horrible kludge I know, but I don't have a whole heap of options (it must be a windows, thick client application that runs on a machine with a scanner connected), so I just launch this:
c:\cygwin\bin\bash.exe --login -c "scanimage -t 30 -y 30 --mode Color --depth 8 --resolution 1200 --sharpness 2 --format=tiff --source TPU8x10 > ~/out.tiff"
via a Process in the .NET application and when it returns I load up the file into a Bitmap and carry on as if nothing freaky just happened (means the application has now a whole heap of extra prerequisites and fiddly configuration steps, but, well, meh, sue me).
