Ubuntu :: Epson Perfection V330 Photo Not Recognized By XSane And Simple Scan
Jan 13, 2011
I just got an Epson Perfection V330 Photo scanner.After connecting it to Ubuntu 10.04, it's not recognized by XSane and Simple Scan.The relevant lsusb output:Bus 001 Device 008: ID 04b8:0142 Seiko Epson Corp.Google does not yet know "04b8:0142",.
i had this scanner working perfectly but now when i want to use it xsane returns this error:failed to open device 'snapscan:libusb:001:007':error during device I/Ounder ubuntu 9.04 i tried to change usb ports, disconnect and reconnect the scanner, reboot
Sorry to post an answered question, but this site is google favorite, and I would like that this goes as easy as it can be for other users, so I'm hoping that if anybody searches for Epson Perfection V100 Photo for linux or Fedora Epson Perfection V100 finds this page.All the trick is to go to [URL]..
Install: xsane sane-backends (I installed this, but IDK if is necessary please some1 confirm this) Download: iscan-data-1.6.0-0.noarch.rpm
here are files an instructions on how to Install "Epson Perfection V200 PHOTO" under Squeeze.within tar file there's a INSTALL readme file (.txt, .pdf, .odt)[URL]
i use linux OS with ubuntu and i have installed my printer (epson stylus photo tx650) but when i print it prints black pages on and on and doesn't stop,though if i print using my windows xp laptop and using the same USB cable, it prints,hence this shows me that some settings on printer configuration are not well set and i fail to know which are these settings. its only printing i cant do but i can scan and even photocopy.
al@ONE:~$ scanimage -Ldevice `epson2:libusb:001:016' is a Epson Perfection610 flatbed scannerScan error is returned in gscan2pdf saying 'invalid argument'Simple Scan says 'failed to scan' and 'unable to start scan' Scanning always worked with previous versions
I switched from Sidux to Ubunbtu Lucid yesterday. On Sidux I had to struggle a little but to get this scanner working but at the end everything was fine. However on Lucid no success, I googled around and followed different instructions found in the www. sane-find-scanner and scanimage -L can find it (but it takes some time for scanimage -L) however I cannot scan and the scanner also does not react at all. The reaction of iscan and all the other scanning software is not consistent, error messages vary. A am thinking about switching back to some older Ubuntu version in case that I cannot get it running, I need the scanner in order to send fax
I've installed the epkowa backend for the V300 scanner. Communications from Chuck56 and Alien Bob were helpful. The core, data, and esci-interpreter packages are installed, epkowa.conf and dll.conf seem properly configured. sand-find-scanner, lsusb, scanimage -L all report correctly. xsane works normally, and iscan initializes, and produces a preview image. scan however fails citing 'not enough space for operation,' although GBs are available. When iscan is closed, these errors are reported:
libpng warning: Application was compiled with png.h from libpng-1.2.8 libpng warning: Application is running with png.c from libpng-1.4.5 libpng warning: Incompatible libpng version in application and library
My system is running Slackware v. 13.37, Linux v. 2.6.37.6-smp.
I have not been able to get my Epson Perfection V100 scanner to work with Lenny. The correct driver files have been downloaded from Avasys and installed.
I can't figure out how to specify a particular scan size in xsane. The only place I can find to change size is in preview, where there is a drop down list of choices including letter port. How do I specify an arbitrary size in inches?
I started a thread that just brushed on the topic of running Xsane to scan with my HP c6380. However, the subject did not go very deep. It was alot about the printer, but not very much about scanning. It was also a previous installation and version of FedoraKDE. Now, I would like to take a moment to ask how to get Xsane up and running so that I can scan with my printer. I have it installed using $yum. However, the icon has not appeared anywhere and I am stumped.
The printer of my multi Epson CX5600 works fine, but when I run xsane I get the "No devices available" window. I tried running it as root with the same result. I have installed "iscan-firmware-2.1.1-1.fc12 (noarch) but it still wont work.h kernel 2.6.33.6-147.fc13.i686.
The one thing that has stopped me switching over to Ubuntu was getting my scanner to work. I finally resolved this issue. Here are the set I followed to get it working. When trying to scan with XSane I would get the device not found alert. Using the sane-find-scanner command would find the scanner as a USB device. found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8, product=0x0851) at libusb:001:006 I amended the "rules" file for xsane /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules added the two following lines
[code]...
Now I have a fully working colour scanner, bye bye windows
Ok, installing the Epson DX8400 printer driver was easy... I just turned it on, and Ubuntu searched and installed the printer itself.
But scanning... that's another story. In Ubuntu 9.04 the trick was as simple as installing libsane-extras in Synaptic, but this doesn't work in Ubuntu 9.10! When I try to run XSane, it simply replies that there is no available device...
I'm trying to set up this printer with my Ubuntu OS (Lucid), but it doesn't seem to be working. I'm trying to install the driver for the printer but I keep getting:
Code: eiven@eiven-laptop:~/Desktop/pipslite-1.4.0$ ./configure checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p checking for gawk... gawk
Iam using xsane to try and scan a document to computer my scaner is a HP photosmart c3180 it only wants to scan part of document has any one found a way to get round this
I'm new to Ubuntu and I'm having real problems getting my Epson DX7450 to scan. It prints okay. I've googled and searched lots of forums and I'm not really having a great deal of success. I keep getting sent to the Avansys page and then I just get lost I will be eternally grateful.
I'm running OpenSUSE 11.0 (64 bit). I have an Epson Stylus Photo R300 printer that used to work just fine. Apparently there was an update to the CUPS software that I applied and now the printer is no longer working.
Through examining the error_log file in /var/log/cups I found that two files were missing from /usr/lib/cups/filter. These files existed in the /usr/lib64/cups/filter directory so I linked them to the /usr/lib/cups/filter directory. That cleared up two errors.
When I send a "Print Self Test Page" command from the CUPS Printers page, I get the following error:
Returning IPP client-error-document-format-not-supported for Print-Job (ipp://localhost:631/printers/EPSON_Stylus_Photo_R300) from localhost
When I attempt to send a print job from an application like gedit or OpenOffice Writer, I get the following error:
Returning IPP client-error-document-format-not-supported for Send-Document (ipp://localhost:631/printers/EPSON_Stylus_Photo_R300) from localhost
I've crawled all through the openSUSE forums and 'googled' all sorts of variations for these errors and found nothing useful. I'm hoping someone here might have a clue as to where I might go next to fix this.
Like I said, it was working before and now it's not so there must be something in a recent CUPS release that has messed things up.
I've been using Ubuntu 9.10 'in anger' for a couple of weeks now and overall I'm impressed. However, a couple of days ago my old Epson C46 (which had been working fine under Karmic) died, and I had a look for a replacement.
I decided on a Canon MP270 because Canon seemed to have gone to the trouble of providing Linux drivers on their website. I even phoned Canon and they confirmed it should work fine.
Today the AIO arrived and I downloaded the printer and scanner drivers from Canon. I could't get the install.sh files to run - tried ./ sudo and sh etc, no joy. Anyway, I used the package manager to install the .deb files and that seemed to go OK.
The printing side of things works fine but I can't get the scanner recognized by Xsane.......
The scanner is seen using lsusb command but when i open xsane it is not recognized. Xsane wants to use the webcam instead. I think this happened because i saved the settings of the former scanner a few days ago. Should i delete that setting that is saved in the home>.sane>.xsane directory? The old scanner is a Canon Canoscan lide N1220U and the new one is a Canon Canoscan lide 100. I would appreciate any suggestions as i tried a reboot with no improvement :0)
when i moved to linux,my printer was detected and was working ok,just to day i needed to "scan " a document (not used scan since moving to linux) and i cant see how to do it. ive loaded the setup cd ,and tried to reinstall,but i get the message,not reconised or simelar.
my all-in-one Epson scanner does not work. I tried to install the iscan drivers (free and/or proprietary) via repository and/or via Avasys website, but nothing happens: the scanner is not recognized. I use Gnome and openSUSE 11.2
It seems that they are not shown under xev ...Someone knows if old scanner, can be detected in terms of button pressing ?[URL]button pressing does not show up into deamon.log
how to get xsane to scan a document and have it display as a full 8.5x11 sized document instead of something half that size? I've been trying and trying and can't seem to figure it out.
I have a Lexmark interpret S405 all in one. I got it to work as a wireless printer with the downloads provided by Lexmark. I installed simple-scan (sane) to enable scanning. Simple scan works, since it sees another all in one printer in our house and is able to scan. In addition, simple-scan does work on the Lexmark when I hook it up with a USB cable. HOWEVER, for some reason simple-scan does not see my Lexmark, despite the fact that it is seen as a wireless printer. So, the following discrepancy is present
a) My Lexmark is recognized by my computer as a wireless printer
b) Simple-scan does work, since it recognizes and scans another all in one and it does work with my Lexmark when connected with a USB cable
c) Nevertheless Simple-scan does not recognize my Lexmark all in one wirelessly. My question to this distinguished form is: How can I make simple-scan recognize my Lexmark wireleslsy?
