[sane-devel] Canon MP600R - Connection via LAN

[Michael Brasse]

Hello everybody,
Attempts to connect to the scanner of my new Canon MP600R via the
network was not successful.

If I manage I am happy to provide test reports etc.

If that is not the right place to ask, please refer - otherwise I am
happy for any ideas.

The problem I have is:
sandmann:/etc/sane.d # SANE_DEBUG_NET=128 scanimage -L
[sanei_debug] Setting debug level of net to 128.
[net] sane_init: authorize = 0x804d560, version_code = 0xbff301d8
[net] sane_init: SANE net backend version 1.0.13 (AF-indep+IPv6) from

[net] connect_dev: [0] failed to connect (Connection refused)
[net] connect_dev: [1] failed to connect (Connection refused)
[net] connect_dev: couldn't connect to host (see messages above)
[net] sane_get_devices: ignoring failure to connect to 192.168.0.2
[net] sane_get_devices: finished (0 devices)

No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
[net] sane_exit: exiting
[net] sane_exit: closing dev 0x8054f68, ctl=-1
[net] sane_exit: finished.

also:
sandmann:/etc/sane.d # telnet 192.168.0.2 6566
Trying 192.168.0.2...
telnet: connect to address 192.168.0.2: Connection refused

Printing works, ping works, the web-server of the device works, there
is no firewall running on my machine - but scanning doesn't work.

This is what I have configured (this is all I know):

sandmann:/etc/sane.d # cat net.conf
# This is the net config file.  Each line names a host to attach to.
# If you list "localhost" then your backends can be accessed either
# directly or through the net backend.  Going through the net backend
# may be necessary to access devices that need special privileges.
# localhost
192.168.0.2

sandmann:/etc/sane.d # cat dll.conf
# enable the next line if you want to allow access through the network:
net
#abaton
#agfafocus
#apple
...

sandmann:/etc # cat services
...
#               6559-6565  Unassigned
sane-port       6566/tcp   # SANE Control Port
sane-port       6566/udp   # SANE Control Port
#               6567-6578  Unassigned
affiliate       6579/tcp   # Affiliate
...

The following versions of sane run on my machine (openSuse 10.2):
mbrasse at sandmann:~> rpm -qa *sane*
sane-backends-1.0.18-14
sane-frontends-1.0.14-69
python-imaging-sane-1.1.6-3
xsane-0.994-8

Also the latest mp150-0.13.0.tar.bz2 from
http://home.arcor.de/wittawat/pixma/ is downloaded and installed (it
should contain the latest patches from
http://pixma-mp600.sourceforge.jp/ which are mentioned several times.

Thanks for any hint.

Best regards
             Micha
