(Note that I also have a Canon ImageClass multi-function printer/scanner sitting on my desk, the scanner of which I’ve never figured out how to use.- Adapter for 12x 35mm filmstrip, 4x 35mm slides, 120 format. Nothing fancy and not many options but it does the job and saved an old, working-fine scanner from the scrap heap. The pair of scripts allow me to select from several image sizes, converts the image from ppm to jpg, copies the image to the Mac and opens it in Graphic Converter. To make it even more convenient I wrote an AppleScript front end for the shell script. Making it unnecessary to log in to the Pi. Ssh 'scanimage -x 210 -y 297 -resolution 300 > scan.ppm' This simple command runs an A4 sized scan at 300 dpi: Finding that to be inconvenient I wrote a shell script on the Mac that runs scanimage via SSH. Since the Pi is headless I had to run scanimage via an SSH session. I connected the LiDE 30 and installed scanimage on the Pi. I happened to have a Raspberry Pi next to my desk which runs a webcam.

It seemed crazy to buy VueScan for such an old scanner.
