Is that correct? Libusb detected my scanner (Canon > 3000F) as well.
Normal would be that a mouse has a driver assigned, such as usbhid, and sane-find-scanner should leave it alone. I could not get sane-find-scanner to list my mouse even after I put the vendor and product numbers in sane.d/genesys.conf. Perhaps there is an incorrect vendor/product entry in the *.conf files that you have? libusb is able to communicate with almost any usb device. regards, Gerald
