Public bug reported:
Hi guys, in relationship with this closed post:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sane-backends/+bug/950843, I
have the same problem than John and Miles over different Epson Wifi
Scanners or combis (printer + scanner). After searching a lot, many
other Linux Distributions have the same problem in their latest versions
with the scanner drivers well installed and the conection to the
equipment working. Using the program what you want, the scanner starts
(you can see the process on the scanner screen) to do his work and then
all fails.
The most worrisome situation is that anyone of this forums don't give
any solution and it looks like a big problem. To nornmal users and
institutional or educational ines, this type of problems are very
important to select a good OS, and it's crazy that in 2019 we have
problems to work propperly with a modern scan in Linux, no to mention
that many manufacturers like Epson still do not give direct support...
I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and usually an Epson XP-530.
Greetings from Spain,
Pablo.
