I forgot about the udev rules. I can't find the file in the original
source, so I suppose is automatically generated somewhere. In any case, I
only added this lines in libsane.rules:
# Canon PIXMA MP230
ATTRS{idVendor}=="04a9", ATTRS{idProduct}=="175f", MODE="0664",
GROUP="scanner", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes"

>> Hi Marc,

>> Please test all scan options with all resolutions first. I assume that
>> SANE can only support up to 600 dpi.
>>
>> Also test button support. Press any button and send a status request to
>> the scanner: 'scanimage -A'. The response should contain something like
>> this:
>>
>> Buttons:
>> --button-update
>> Update button state
>> --button-1 <int> [0] [read-only]
>> Button 1
>> --button-2 <int> [1] [read-only]
>> Button 2
>> --original <int> [0] [read-only]
>> Type of original to scan
>> --target <int> [5] [read-only]
>> Target operation type
>> --scan-resolution <int> [0] [read-only]
>> Scan resolution
>>
>> If no data will be shown, please enable debut output with: 'export
>> SANE_DEBUG_PIXMA=11'. Then look for these lines:

>> Buttons:
