Title:
libsane does not detect Epson Stylus Office BX300F scanner
Status in sane-backends package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: libsane
I have an Epson Stylus Office BX300F USB all-in-one
printer/scanner/fax, which is documented on the sane website as being
supported by the epson2 driver.
However, the printer is not detected when plugged in and requires some
additional tweaking. Two small tweaks are sufficient:
1. Ensure that the device ID is being claimed by the correct driver: Edit
/etc/sane.d/epson2.conf and add the line:
usb 0x4b8 0x848
2. Ensure that the USB node's permissions are correctly set to allow
unprivileged users to scan: add the following lines to
/lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules:
#Epson Office BX300F
ATTRS{idVendor}=="04b8", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0848", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"
I don't know if this is the Right Way to do it, or if there's a better
way in the epson2 source code itself, but it'd be great if this
scanner/printer could be detected automatically in future releases.
