[sane-devel] Scanner Canon - CanoScan 300, udev rules missing?

[m. allan noah]

Marek- can you remove the symlink, and try this instead:

edit /etc/sane.d/canon.conf, and add the following line at the end:

scsi CANON IX

and see if scanimage -L shows your scanner as root.

If that works, then try changing the 'IX' to 'DR', and that should NOT work.

please report back your results.
