Thank you for your reply.
I feel a little insulted that my original post and question were not fully read and replied to.
“No matter what I do whether I modify the ScanApp.ini, adjust the settings trough the HPScan UI, or change the settings in the HP LJ M1530 Scan program, the scans always come back looking like garbage.“
I have already tried using the UI to change the settings.
“We have been back and forth multiple times with the software developer concerning this and they have told us that they do not control any of the scan settings in the program when the TWAIN function is called.
I have poked around with Twacker, Twirl, Twister, (and I think there was a Twinkie in there somewhere 😉 ) to try and set these. From what I have observed, these programs are all designed for programmers to determine and test the capabilities of a TWAIN scanner to ensure complete integration with whatever they are developing and are NOT designed to permanently change the data source files.”
While I stated that I have poked around with Twacker, I also stated that I am now aware of the fact that this (and other programs like it) are designed to TEST the TWAIN capabilities of the scanners and they do not make any PERMANENT changes the data source file. My professional observation of this whole situation is that the default resolution in the data source file is what is being reverted to when the TWAIN function is called, being that the software developer is NOT calling a specific resolution. (Please refer to the above link to view the values of the .DS file)
ICAP_XRESOLUTION:
GET………….fix32 ENUM{ 75, 100, 150, 200, 300, 600, 1200 } Current:
75, Default: 75
GETCURRENT……fix32 75
GETDEFAULT……fix32 75
SET………….75 ok
SET………….100 ok

SET………….200 ok
SET………….300 ok
SET………….600 ok
SET………….1200 ok“Here is my (original) question: Do any of you here know of a way to OPEN the data source or how to permanently change the settings in the data source file to suit my needs? Or am I completely off my rocker to think that I will be able to make this change without forcing the developer to change their programming to make this work?”
“If it works fine with Twacker or Dynamic Web TWAIN demo, then you may talk again with your software developer and check why your program didn’t pick up your resolution settings.”
“We have been back and forth multiple times with the software developer concerning this and they have told us that they do not control any of the scan settings in the program when the TWAIN function is called.”
Like I stated: The software developer is not calling or looking for ANY resolution setting, they are allowing the DEFAULT settings of the TWAIN driver to control the resolution (which for all of my research I have done, is held in the data source file). In this situation, 75DPI is the default value held in the data source file.
Is it possible for me to manually manipulate the values in the data source file to make the default resolution higher than 75 DPI??
Thanks!
I am wondering if i failed to post this question in the correct area as I see some activity (52 views at the time of this reply) and have yet to get a simple “Yeah, you ARE a moron for even thinking you can do what you are asking” reply.
Do I need to move this question to another section to get the proper aid or acknowledgement from anybody?
Again, any help will be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks!
