Actually it is the page orientation corrector and borders detector that cause some lag : a single A4 page lags not at all (but I scan A4 notebooks badly folded).

While in Windows, you can use this:

https://www.uwe-sieber.de/usbtreeview_e.html

   https://www.uwe-sieber.de/files/UsbTreeView_x64.zip

What that does, is it displays the config space of hardware
in USB ports.

That takes the place of Microsoft USBView and UVCView (more
or less different versions of the same thing).

The speed difference may have something to do with the
undocumented SonixAsic (Application Specific Integrated Circuit).

The .deb file is unlikely to control all the CZUR designs.
You would need a .deb specifically for the "Shine Ultra Pro",
and it's hard to predict whether some cosmetic changes to the
material the .deb installed will be sufficient to make it work.

Some of the software senses serial number. The serial number is
likely a token to make the software work.
