<p>Greetings to all, @List.</p>
<p>I have a PIXMA TS9100 series multifunction device – specifically,
the TS9160 – which is listed as not yet having been reported to
work (or not work) via SANE. In this instance, <span
class="module__title__link">although not quite a Schrödinger's
cat scenario, SANE does both work and NOT work. Let me explain:</span></p>
<p><span class="module__title__link">The device is connected via USB
to a Desktop machine which multiboots Debian 10, and Manjaro
(current). SANE functionality works as expected on Manjaro but
not on Debian – The scanner isn't found either by the SANE
interface or Simple-Scan.</span></p>
<p><span class="module__title__link">Canon's ScanGearMP2, however,
works as expected on Debian. The only obvious differences are
the respective versions between Debian and Manjaro
installations:</span></p>
<ul>
</ul>
<span class="module__title__link">Debian:</span>
<ul>
<li><span class="module__title__link">Canon ScanGear MP v2 --
3.50-1 (the ONLY version available from Canon)</span><span
class="module__title__link"></span></li>
<li><span class="module__title__link">SANE: 1.0.14</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
</ul>
<span class="module__title__link">Manjaro</span>
<ul>
<li><span class="module__title__link">Canon ScanGear MP v2 --
3.90-1 (installed from ArchLinux AUR)</span></li>
<li><span class="module__title__link">SANE: 1.0.31<br>
</span></li>
</ul>
<span class="module__title__link"></span>
<p>I hope to have the device functioning through the SANE interface
on Debian, or if ultimately not possible, at least to leave some
breadcrumbs for those who may follow.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance to whoever can help with this quest.<br>
