I have a Pantum M6600 multifunction printer - USB only - no WiFi.
Printing works fine on my Kubuntu box (after installing a driver).
I can also scan using xsane or gscantopdf.
But when I press the physical scan button on the printer, I get a
message on the printer's LCD screen: "PC unresponsive". I assume it's
"looking for" a Windows PC. In fact, when I connect it to a Windows
machine, the scan works and is saved in D:\Users\solomon\Pictures.
Does anyone have an idea how to get this to work on Linux?
A quick search suggests that scanbd is what you need.

There's a Debian package, so I'm guessing there's a Ubuntu one too.
HTH,
