<p><font size="+1"><font face="Times New Roman"> With my usb
connection, all of the issues that I had listed in my original
post
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/sane-devel/2019-March/036608.html">https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/sane-devel/2019-March/036608.html</a>)
have been resolved, except that, for Xsane/Advance Options,
pressing “Update button state” has no affect and the other 5
sliders/windows are grayed out; however, I haven’t explored
the “button” thing yet. After configuring Xsane/Setup
optimally for the photos that I was scanning, the scanned
images look great at all resolutions thru 1200 ppi. <br>
</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font face="Times New Roman"> After testing
scanimage, simple scan, and xsane I have the following
observations and questions:<br>
For scanimage scan: Results from this scan of a 4” x 6”
(152.4mm x 101.6mm) photo has a resolution of 75 ppi. Is
there a way to get higher resolutions with this command? I
didn’t see any here:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man1/scanimage.1.html">http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man1/scanimage.1.html</a><br>
For simple scan: With 4” x 6” photo oriented Landscape at
upper right corner of the platen, the scanned image is cut off
on the right side, showing a 4” x 4” Landscape image in the
upper portion of a 4” x 6” Portrait frame. If I position the
photo oriented Portrait at the upper right corner of the
platen, the scanned image fills the 4” x 6” Portrait frame,
which can then be rotated 90* and saved in the Landscape
orientation. Not sure if this was intended, or not.<br>
For Xsane scan: With the 4” x 6” photo oriented Landscape,
and a “full size” “Acquire preview” done, the 4” x 6” image is
shown Landscape at the upper left as expected. But if,
instead of “full size”, I select 4” x 6”, the “Acquire
preview” is a 4” x 4” Landscape image, with the right side cut
off. Re-orienting the photo as above for simple scan has the
same outcome. Again, not sure if this was intended, or not.</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font face="Times New Roman">Lastly, what is the
difference between the setting in Xsane Setup/Copy/Scan
Resolution and Xsane Main menu/Set scan resolution? Does the
Main menu supersede the Setup settings?</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font face="Times New Roman">How do I delete
“device `canon_pixma:libusb:001:006' is a CANON TS6200 series
flatbed scanner”?</font></font></p>
<p><font size="+1"><font face="Times New Roman">Should I proceed
with the WiFi setup?<br>
</font></font></p>

response and excellent fix!<br>

Hi,
Yesterday I merged the merge request bachends/!43. You can update SANE
from my Ubuntu ppa
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://launchpad.net/~rolfbensch/+archive/ubuntu/sane-git">https://launchpad.net/~rolfbensch/+archive/ubuntu/sane-git</a>) later today.
Please report if the scanner is working with SANE, especially scans >
600dpi.
Before you start with WiFi connection, please test USB first.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Rolf

I find it unfortunate that the backend pixma does not take input usb-id.
The pixma driver supports all printer scanners:
canon pixma ts and canon pixma mg.
Currently you have to add it directly in the code.

I assume that the pixma backend maintainer would welcome a patch adding
support for this ;-)
Hope this helps,
