[sane-devel] Sane support for Canon PIXMA MG2120, trying to get it to work

[David H. Durgee]

The all-in-one went on sale and I decided to buy it to try it.  I am 
seeing the following on my linux mint katya x64 system here:

So sane-find-scanner is working and finding the scanner, but scanimage 
does not appear to be seeing it.  I also tried using simple-scan, but it 
is complaining.  I don't see the format of the device documented for it, 
so perhaps this is a simple error?  Where do I go from here?
