Should probably be supported by this: https://manpages.debian.org/stretch/libsane-common/sane-pixma.5.en.html#FILES You'll need to put the IP in /etc/sane.d/pixma.conf as described in that section, eg. bjnp://<ipaddr> For my MG3250 it sometimes gives an error trying to connect the first time, but it wakes the scanner parts and it works the second time. Regards Hi All, How do I get root privileges to modify /etc/sane.d/pixma.conf? Yours Sincerely Stephen Grant Brown
