<p>Hi Ralph,</p>
<p>you are right. I had to do 2 things:</p>
<p>1. Uncomment in /etc/sane.d/gt68xx.conf:<br>
# Mustek ScanExpress 1200 UB Plus:<br>
override "mustek-scanexpress-1200-ub-plus"<br>
2. Get SBfw.usb (instead PS1fw.usb) from here:<br>

<p>I used this artikle: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Scanner/gt68xx/">https://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Scanner/gt68xx/</a></p>
<p>With scanimage and Simple Scan the scanner works fine, but XSane
crashes always, after the scan has completed.<br>
See: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://gitlab.com/sane-project/frontend/xsane/issues/15">https://gitlab.com/sane-project/frontend/xsane/issues/15</a><br>
Unfortunately I'm unable to upload the crash report, as it is >
10 MB, it is 25.6 MB.<br>

I have this old scanner here and want to test if it works
on Ubuntu<br>
18.04 64 bit.<br>
<br>
I get:<br>
$ lsusb<br>

flatbed scanner<br>
$ scanimage -hA<br>

Type ``scanimage --help -d DEVICE'' to get list of all
options for DEVICE.<br>
<br>
List of available devices:<br>
gt68xx:libusb:006:006<br>

I guess, I'm missing the right backend. Where can I find
it?<br>
