John, make sure that: - /dev/sg0 is readable for the user running scanimage or another frontend, or, for a first test, run scanimage -L as root. /dev/sg0 is the device file that will be used to access the scanner. - /etc/sane.d/dll.conf (or /usr/local/etc/sane.d/dll.conf, if you installed Sane directly from the sources) has a line 'canon', without a leading '#' - check the existence of /etc/sane.d/canon.conf resp. /usr/local/etc/sane.d/sanon.conf The default version of canon.conf contains a line like "/dev/scanner". I am not sure, if this is enough; you might add a line "/dev/sg0". If all this does not help, run export SANE_DEBUG_DLL=255 export SANE_DEBUG_CANON=255 export SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_SCSI=255 scanimage -L 2> test.log This will produce a (perhaps somewhat larger) file test.log that contains much debug output. Send the file to me (may be too big for the mailing list), and I'll see, what the cause of the problem might be. Abel
