Mageia forum

Hi,

i have recently bought the aforementioned scanner, cause i saw that it is supported in linux. But it seems that it is not running in mageia 5.
I run the "setup scanner" in MCC, but it hasn't the scanner in the list (tried some other canon lide, but in vain).

Code: Select all

sane-find-scanner -q

gives:

Code: Select all

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9 [Canon], product=0x190f [CanoScan], chip=GL848+) at libusb:002:008

If this is any help! Should I try some unstable sane and how?

Thanks!

Have a look here: http://www.sane-project.org/sane-mfgs.html#Z-CANON

If you wan't to get it working need to compile manually sane git

Also you can file a bug to our bugzilla so it will be supported in next Mageia 6.

This should also moved by moderator to printer section it can used to scanner problems too.
