[sane-devel] BJNP protocol

[Ralph Little]

Hi,Do any of the SANE Pixma devs (I guess primarily Rolf) have any documentation of the BJNP protocol so far as scanning is concerned?If so, could I get a hold of a copy?I guess I could figure it out with a code read but if someone had something written down, then that would save me a lot of work.
Cheers,Ralph

Hi Ralph
No there is no documentation. reverse engineered the protocol based on
the traces of the Ip-packets.
So reading the code (especially pixma_bjnp_private.h) is the way to go.
Most communication happens using UDP, but the transfer of the scanned
data happens over TCP.
