NISCAN.SYS
The Niscan Handy Scanner is completely programmable using the PC Paintbrush
scanning menus.
This scanner supports:
Resolutions: 200 and 100 dpi
Brightness: 1-9
Dithers: 3
The Niscan may be addressed in four different locations. These port addresses
can be switched using a combination of command line switches and in setting
the jumpers, according to this chart:
258h/0 (default, no command line switch)
278h/1 (switch JB1)
358h/2 (switch JB2)
378h/3 (switch JB1 & JB2)
LIMITATIONS:
THIS DRIVER IS GAMMA RELEASE LEVEL. THIS MEANS THAT IT WORKS. THOUGH IT PASSED
OUR TESTING DEPARTMENT, IT WAS JUDGED MARGINALLY ACCEPTABLE. THE REASON IS
THAT THIS HAND SCANNER DOES NOT SUPPORT DMA TRANSFER OF DATA (AS DO ALL OUR
OTHER HAND SCANNER DRIVERS) AND IS EXCEPTIONALLY SLOW.
WITH THE MYRIAD OF PC HARDWARE AVAILABLE ON THE MARKET TODAY, YOU MAY FIND
OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THIS DRIVER.
THIS DRIVER IS CAPABLE OF PRODUCING ALMOST SEAMLESS IMAGES WITH EMS (LIM 4.0)
AND AN 'AT' CLASS COMPUTER.
