[sane-devel] Support for Canon Pixma MG5100 Series

[Rolf Bensch]

Hi Patrick,

I have no idea about your sine-find-scanner problem. Maybe somebody else
on the ml has an idea?

A complete pnm scan @ 1200 dpi should work without any problem.

Please try to fetch a copy from git and install sane 1.0.24. The
installation is described in README.linux.

Cheers,
Rolf
