here is the code:
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 04a9:1723 Canon, Inc. 

let me know when the driver is ready. will be better if you can put out a patch, so i can do it via apt-get source.

thanks!

Being a recent Canon model, we could try to check whether it can be driven by Pixma modified driver for MP610, MP520, and MP210.



Can you provide the USB PID of this all-in one ?



You can get it by a simple:



$ lsusb



I can declare this scanner in the driver, issue the modified version of the driver, and you could give a try to check it.



Instructions on how to install the modified Pixma driver above Sane 1.0.18 are given on this blog:

This is for Allan:



Concerning new Sane version and Pixma driver:

I've ready sitting on my desktop, the patch to add MP610, MP520 and MP210 scanners to patch the pixma files, in the current Sane CVS version. 

At the moment, compiled and tested successfully with an MP610, on Gutsy and on Mandriva 2007.

    Hello,

    I just bought a Canon Pixma MP470 printer+scanner device and I cannot get it to work with sane. The printer part seems to work with the MP150 driver. 

    I can pitch in with some usb scan info, if some one tells me where to find the docs.
