Someone sent they thought it was a permissions problem and to run from
root.
When you run XSane from root you get this message:
" You try to run XSane as root, that really is DANGEROUS!
I selected:
Continue at your own risk
The next screen is:
no device available
I selected Help:
It lists 6 items.
Entry #4 is, I Think, where my problem lies.
It is:
4) The backend is not loaded by SANE (man sane-dll)
Doing " apropos sane" does not show a sane-dll.
I have no idea for fixing that.

I am seeking help in getting my Lexmark X1185 scanner working.
I do not need the printer part at this time.
When I run sane-find-scanner I do get the vendor= 0x043d product=
0x07c @ libusb:001:006.
Running scanimage -L reports no scanner found.
I have on my system VM box with windows XP installed.
Installing the Lexmark windows driver for the scanner I can scan items.
When running xsane from root or the graphic interface I get the same
message.
1 Really no device. not true
2 Device busy not true
3 No permission not true Get the same results
in root
4 Backend not loaded by sane can't find sane-dll or man
sane-dll
5 Backend not confg correctly ?? how do I know this I have
sane-lexmark file
in etc/sane.d/lexmark.confg as
follows:
# X11xx series
usb 0x043d 0x007c
# X12xx series
usb 0x043d 0x007d
# Dell A920
usb 0x413c 0x5105
# X74
usb 0x43d 0x0060
6 More than one sane version installed ?? how would I find this out?
If you can help me I would appreciate it very much.
Thank You
Kurt
Hello,
could you test wtih the scanimage program as root, with debug traces
enabled ?
In a shell type:
export SANE_DEBUG_LEXMARK=255
export SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_USB=255
sudo scanimage -L 2>probe.log
This will create a probe.log file with all the traces. Send it (zipped)
to the list. We may find an explanation in these.
BTW, since is is a multi function device, maybe some printing service is
blocking scanning access.
Regards,
Stef
