I have just installed the drivers for the scanner on my brother mfc5460cn. Xsane recognizes the machine but cannot open due to an invalid argument. The problem seems to be that xsane is looking for the machine at bus 1 dev 1 however, lsusb shows the machine at bus 2 dev 5.
How can I fix the discrepancy? I've tried sudo chmod a+w /dev/bus/usb but there was no change.
I just received a Canon Pixma MX320 as a gift.
I am currently running the Ubuntu 10.04 OS
I was able to get the printer up and running by downloading the printer driver for debian linux (3.1) from the Canon site without any problems.
Unfortunately I am not having the same luck with the scanner.
I tried downloading ScanGear MP for Linux (deb) (1.3) from the same Canon site but have not yet been able to get the XSane Image Scanner to recognize this scanner driver for my Canon.
Please check this:PS:

why, after booting to windows for any length of time that upon rebooting to Fedora the system time is 3 or 4 or 6 hours off? Sure, it is easily fixed with ntpdate but is there a more permanent fix?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI was able to get my Epson Stylus NX510 printer up and running (after much issue), but I can't get the scanner working. I'm on a laptop, and the printer/scanner is wifi enabled and broadcasts with its own IP address. I can print with no problem, but xsane and simple scan don't recognize the scanner. I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx.

It's connected and printer is working through the scanner.But i can't get the system to recognise the scanner.
I'm all new to Ubuntu, and i thought it was easy and terminal is a totally new thing to me.
Is there a workaround to get this scanner to work through graphical interface install, or is terminal wisdom needed...

I've installed XSane Image Scanner. When I first opened it, it searched for my scanner and didn't give any error messages, and it had my scanner model in the heading of the scan window. But when I hit the scan button, it gave me saying, "Failed to start scanner: error during device I/O.I closed everything, and opened XSane again. This time it said there was no scanner available. The scanner is plugged into the USB port and uses that for both power and data. It's a Canoscan Model N650U.

I'm working with a program that uses Open Motif to create all of the widgets, including the Open File dialog box (obviously). However, Open Motif being kinda old-timey, 80's vintage, and for the most part now an abandoned project, it is quite clunky. So, actually what I need to do is to open some files located on my work server. I have already successfully connected to the relevant server directories with Samba, and with programs built with GTK+ (such as GIMP) I can open files across the network because I have created a bookmark in Nautilus, and those bookmarks appear in the Open File dialog box created by GTK+. Now, Open Motif is different: it doesn't see network locations, orNautilus shortcuts. When I type "smb://serveripyadayada" in the search folder, it really doesn't like it and complains. So, what do I do? Can I get somehow Open Motif to open a network location? Or can I do a run-around and place a shortcut in the file system that points to the network location?

Anyway I am missing the possibility of writing manually the folder you want to go on nautilus using the Location bar. It was used to have some kind of icon which you can click and it switched between graphich breadcrumbs or the location of the folder and you could changed it manually, you know what I mean?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been using a Nikon Coolscan 4000ED on Ubuntu for a couple of years via Vuescan with no problems at all.
The other day I upgraded to 10.10 and Vuescan can no longer see the scanner. So I tried X-Sane and Simplescan and they both say there is no scanner even though it's connected and switched on. So for some reason, Ubuntu 10.10 cannot see the scanner or perhaps the IEEE connection.
I have a mac, but I have a lot of files on my Ubuntu machine, that i'd like to transfer over, but I would like to make sure they are clean.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'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.......
I'm using 9.10 on x86 architecture. I've searched the forums and anything related to scanning talks about editing /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libsane.rules which doesn't seem to exist on my system. Judging from the dates most of these posts probably relate to intrepid or jaunty. XSane just says 'no devices available'. Printing works fine.

I'm trying to get a network scanner to function. I've been following the guides here:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1519201
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ScanningHowTo
And I think I am just misunderstanding something.
1. The scanner is properly functioning on the server side.
2. Both, the client and the server, have the package sane-utils installed.
3. I changed /etc/default/saned on the server to RUN=yes (that was easy!)
4. Editing /etc/sane.d/saned.conf is what I think I'm getting confused on. The internal IP address of the server is 192.168.1.102 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. The internal IP address of the client is 192.168.1.103. So, what do I put there? Is 192.168.1.0/24 correct? That didn't work!
5. Also, editing /etc/sane.d/net.conf on the client is confusing me too! What IP address should go there? Can I put the server name? What is the correct syntax?
6. I added saned to the correct group, lp. I made sure that the scanner was owned by the correct group by doing these commands:
sane-find-scanner
AND
ls -al /dev/bus/usb/XXX/XXX
The group was lp.
I followed the instuctions in the ubuntu forums and i got the printer to work but i cant get the scanner to work, simplescan lists the printer but when i try to scan i get an error message.
The printer is a brother MFC-8660DN. I am running Ubuntu 10.10 on a Sony Viao tower, Pentium IV 512mb ram, Nvidia 4ti graphics card.
I am having some issues with 11.04. My print/fax/scanner is connected directly to the ethernet line, and 11.04 cannot detect the scanner portion through the Simple Scan program. I am using an HP Officejet 4500.
I used to be able to scan perfectly fine when using 10.10, and it just won't work anymore I have the HPLIP toolbox installed, and I can't get it to open/run!
I have a 3in1 Epsonsx415, the printing part works perfectly but Ubuntu 10.10 will not detect the scanner.
