[sane-devel] Canon Pixma MX300 - it may or may not be supported by SANE?

[Adam PAPAI]

Hi,

I've tried to install the sane-backed from the CVS repo. I followed 
these instructions:

http://mp610.blogspot.com/2008/04/give-your-scanner-new-freshly-sane.html

Everything went fine, except when I run sane-find-scanner and scanimage 
-L I got these outputs:


root at terulet02:/home/rendszergazda# sane-find-scanner

   # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
   # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
   # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.

   # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make 
sure that
   # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9 [Canon], product=0x1727 [MX300 series]) 
at libusb:006:003
   # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be 
supported by
   # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.

   # Not checking for parallel port scanners.

   # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports
   # can't be detected by this program.

scanimage -L

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).

The DOCs say the MX300 is supported, but it seems not. What should I do now?

Thanks in advance,
