Re: SANE scanner error on Debian Jessie

I have a similar problem, but with a SCSI scanner. If I type in a terminal window lsscsi it shows the scanner is there, but without a location eg /dev/ Sometimes if I type sane-find-scanner it does. This morning I had to use modprobe sg1 then it worked OK. David. On Tue, 2016-03-08 at 16:06 -0
