Hi
I've got a new flatbed scanner, a Canon CanoScan Lide 300. I had a Canon CanoScan Lide 220 before, which worked mostly fine. But then the lamp broke. Both are listed as "completely" supported on the SANE devices page. But that Lide 300 doesn't work. "xsane" says: Failed to open device 'pixma::04A91913': Device busy" "simple-scans" says: "Failed to scan. Unable to connect to scanner" "scanimage -L" says: device `pixma:04A91913' is a CANON CanoScan LiDE 300 multi-function peripheral I'm wondering why the Lide 300 is listed as a "multi-function peripheral". It's not multi-function. It's just a flatbed scanner. "scanimage --device=pixma > image.pnm" says: scanimage: open of device pixma failed: Device busy "lsusb" says: Bus 006 Device 002: ID 1058:25ed Western Digital Technologies, Inc. My Book 25ED Bus 006 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 002: ID 05e3:0612 Genesys Logic, Inc.

For the 220 it's "genesys", for the 300 it's "pixma". Any idea what's wrong?

Hi
I've found a "driver" from Canon for the Lide 300. It's *not* a SANE driver, SANE isn't mentioned at all in the web pages. Instead they provide a program, scangearmp2, which you're supposed to use seemingly. But this thing doesn't work either, even though they say that it supports Lide 300 scanners. It gives this error message: "Cannot find available scanners. Cable may be disconnected or scanner my be turned off. Check the scanner status and then try again."

Hi I think scangearmp2 must be launched from terminal. Open a terminal and type scangearmp2 if you have installed this package yet. Bye Jose O 02/01/21 ás 14:43, Volker Wysk

If so, you probably need a udev rule for the device to change ownership and/or permissions. > > Bye > Volker > -- Robert Heller -- Cell: 413-658-7953 GV: 978-633-5364 Deepwoods Software -- Custom Software Services http://www.deepsoft.com/ -- Linux Administration Services [hidden email] -- Webhosting Services -- ubuntu-users mailing list [hidden email] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users |

Yes, that's what I have done, installed and run it from a terminal.

Hi
I've tried connecting my scanner to my laptop instead of to my desktop. Now there are *two* devices recognized: vaio /tmp $ scanimage -L device `pixma:04A91913' is a CANON CanoScan LiDE 300 multi-function peripheral device `escl:<a href="http://127.0.0.1:60000'">http://127.0.0.1:60000' is a ESCL LiDE 300 HTTP flatbed scanner The first one is the same as at my desktop computer. The second one doesn't work either: vaio /tmp $ scanimage --device='pixma' > image.pnm Output format is not set, using pnm as a default. scanimage: open of device pixma failed: Device busy vaio /tmp $ scanimage --device=escl > image.pnm Output format is not set, using pnm as a default. scanimage: open of device escl failed: Invalid argument vaio /tmp $ scanimage --device='escl:<a href="http://127.0.0.1:60000'">http://127.0.0.1:60000' > image.pnm Output format is not set, using pnm as a default. Capability : [image/jpeg] Capability : [image/jpeg] scanimage: rounded value of br-x from 0 to 0 scanimage: rounded value of br-y from 0 to 0 scanimage: sane_start: Invalid argument Could that be a USB problem?

Hi!
Suddenly my old Canoscan Lide 220 works again! On both my laptop and my desktop... It's crazy! Cheers, V.W. -- ubuntu-users mailing list [hidden email] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users |

Hi!!
I've found it on the web [1]. The package ippusbxd needs to be removed, then the CanoScan Lide 300 works. "For Ubuntu 20.04, this scanner does not work straight forward. The ippusbxd driver tries to get the USB device, and it locks it." $ LANG=C apt show ippusbxd ... Description: Daemon for IPP USB printer support ippusbxd is a userland driver for USB devices supporting the IPP USB specification. It enables these USB printers to be seen as regular network IPP printers.
