I don't know if kubuntu ships systemd. The command is `systemctl status saned.socket`, sorry about that typo in the post above...
If you just used the scanner plugged into an usb socket of your machine, and not the net-backend, there was no need to configure sane manually... We are talking about saned, the sane network deamon, which is needed to use a scanner in your home network, but is connected to another computer acting as server. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577137 Title: sane service masked and cannot be unmasked To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sane-backends/+bug/1577137/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
