[sane-devel] problem to copy

I just tried on Ubuntu 8.04 with:

Sane CVS
xsane 0.995
a Canon MP610 both for scanning and printing (Canon driver for printing)

Create a new printer in "copy" tab under preferences, leave the default
options:

Command: lpr
Num of copies: -#
150 dpi scan for both color and grayscale
Embed scanner ICM profile as CSA (left checked by default)
Create a postscript image (left checked by default)

Then choose "Copy" in xsane menu and click the scan button (all other
options left as default)

And it works fine for me. 

Also tried with a new printer named GtkLP (command: gtklp) and use
cups-pdf as printer and looks to work fine too.

This does not help you too much, but would look rather like a print set
up issue ?
