Hi,
If you are able, you can try to build the pixma backend from branch 264-canon-pixma-mx492-adf-issues at the git repo.
You only really need the libsane-pixma* files to support your scanner.

If you are not sure how to do this, then let me know and I can help you out.

I just tried that branch code on my MX492 and it works fine. However regular 1.1.1 is a bust on the ADF. IIRC it was an alignment requirement that these particular machines are more fussy about.

Cheers,
Ralph

Thanks for your time, Ralph!

The output of `scanimage -V` is:
scanimage (sane-backends) 1.1.1; backend version 1.1.1

:wave:

    I know that there are issues with this family of machines. I have
    done
    some work with a MX492 (that is not yet merged) and it has very
    problematic ADF support.
    I will drag out mine and try it with what you have above and see if I
    get the same.

    In the meantime, could you let us know the versions of your SANE
    components?

    scanimage -V

    Cheers,
    Ralph
