@Ananth: That was disappointing, but thanks for letting us know. The version you mentioned for bionic has the very same patch as the disco and eoan versions, so the (attempt at a) fix is already in the PPA for bionic.
Simon's successful test was on 19.04. @CoderGuy: Which Ubuntu version did you test on? As regards LiDE 100 I see in the discussion on the upstream merge request that Jens Böttge explicitly confirmed that the patch worked when applied to the bionic version of sane-backends. https://gitlab.com/sane- project/backends/merge_requests/34#note_141760446 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to sane-backends in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1731459 Title: genesys_gl847 scanners produce a black band in scanned images on Ubuntu 17.10+, 18.04 LTS and 18.10 Cosmic cuttlefish Status in sane-backends: Unknown Status in sane-backends package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in sane-backends source package in Bionic: In Progress Status in sane-backends source package in Disco: In Progress Status in sane-backends package in Debian: Unknown Bug description: [Impact] When using a Genesys GL847 scanner, the documents get disfigured by a discolored bar. The proposed uploads should fix the issue. They are available in this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~gunnarhj/+archive/ubuntu/sane-backends [Test case] 1. Install the libsane (libsane1 in bionic), libsane-common and sane-utils packages from {bionic,disco]-proposed. 2. Use an affected device to scan, and find that the issue is no longer present. [Regression risk] Upstream commit, focused bug fix => low regression risk [Original description] On Windows it works but on my Ubuntu 17.10, 18.04 and 18.10 I see a black band on scanned image. The scanner is Canon CanoScan LIDE100.
