After some "apt-get upgrade" to Ubuntu 12.04-LTS I now get this exact same problem with a Brother MFC-8660DN.
I don't know which upgrade caused the problem or when it started, but with the original Ubuntu 12.04-LTS I was able to make multiple runs. It never had this problem before. I have to quit from simple scan and restart in order to scan more pages. The last lines of simple-scan.log are: [+53.78s] DEBUG: scanner.vala:818: sane_get_option_descriptor (12) [+53.78s] DEBUG: scanner.vala:480: sane_control_option (4, SANE_ACTION_SET_VALUE, "Automatic Document Feeder") -> (SANE_STATUS_GOOD, "Automatic Document Feeder") [+53.78s] DEBUG: scanner.vala:480: sane_control_option (2, SANE_ACTION_SET_VALUE, "True Gray") -> (SANE_STATUS_GOOD, "True Gray") [+53.78s] DEBUG: scanner.vala:422: sane_control_option (3, SANE_ACTION_SET_VALUE, 150) -> (SANE_STATUS_GOOD, 150) [+53.78s] DEBUG: scanner.vala:462: sane_control_option (10, SANE_ACTION_SET_VALUE, 215.899994) -> (SANE_STATUS_GOOD, 215.880234) [+53.78s] DEBUG: scanner.vala:462: sane_control_option (11, SANE_ACTION_SET_VALUE, 355.599991) -> (SANE_STATUS_GOOD, 355.567444) [+53.78s] DEBUG: scanner.vala:1124: sane_start (page=0, pass=0) -> SANE_STATUS_NO_DOCS As you can see the last line says SANE_STATUS_NO_DOCS so it's saying that there are no documents even though there are. Quitting and restarting simple-scan allows you to use the scanner again, but this defeats the goal of being able to scan several times (e.g. front and back of pages) and combining them into one saved document. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1097096 Title: can't scan more after "scan all from document feeder" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/simple-scan/+bug/1097096/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
