Have you tried sane-backends-1.0.25. That versions claims that support for the MF210 Series was added to the pixma backend. Seeing that you are using Linux Mint, I *guess* that you get your SANE backends via the Ubuntu package archives. The version in Ubuntu's wily (1.0.25+git20150528) appears to be new enough. # The Changelog mention the addition on 2015-04-03.
