ProScan Install Under Linux

Installation Process (Ubuntu 15.10)

The following is written after the base OS has been loaded and updates applied as needed with Wine not installed. This will probably work for all Debian based distributions of Linux.

Install Wine First

Please follow the Linux Setup Guide Here

Install ProScan 10.0 here (Good for 30 Days then $50)

Download from here: http://www.proscan.org/

Extract file in your download directory.

Run: wine ~/Downloads/<Replace_With_Folder_Name>/ProScan_10_0.exe

Note: The OS needs to be in the Proscan folder when started otherwise it won't find its dll. There's probably a fix for it by someone smarter than me with Linux.

For now you can create a shell script to start it in its directory using:

cd ~/.wine/drive_c/'Program Files'/ProScan/

wine ~/.wine/drive_c/'Program Files'/ProScan/ProScan.exe

From the toolbar go to Comm Port to setup your communication.
