You have been subscribed to a public bug: Binary package hint: sane-backends
SANE and XSane are able to initially detect scanners listed as being supported here: http://www.sane-project.org/man/sane-epson2.5.html . However, when attempting to scan this connection is lost. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Login 2. Connect scanner and turn it on 3. Run 'sane-find-scanner' and it is found 4. Attempt to use the scanner with XSane or 'scanimage' Expected Results: The software should be able to communicate with the scanner and retrieve the scanned image. Experienced Results: The connection to the scanner is lost by SANE. ============== WORKAROUND (for USB scanners): 1. Run 'sudo gedit /etc/sane.d/espon2.conf' 2. Add 'usb 0x4b8 0x<device id>' 3. Save Confirmed on Lucid 10.04 alpha 2 (see bug 521827) ** Affects: sane-backends (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Invalid ** Tags: karmic lucid regression-release -- XSane and SANE do not maintain a proper connection with many Epson scanners https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/377977 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to sane-backends in Ubuntu. -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
