[sane-devel] Canon Pixma MX895

[Rolf Bensch]

Hi Gerard,

MX890 series is fully supported by the development (git) SANE version.
Please install latest SANE as desribed here:
http://www.sane-project.org/README.linux. You can see the supported
scanners status of the git version here:
http://www.sane-project.org/lists/sane-backends-cvs.html#S-PIXMA

There are some minor bugs in your scanner's driver. If you like you can
help debugging button and ADF empty support.

Cheers,
Rolf
