[sane-devel] Need Help getting Canon ImageClass MF244dw working

[Curtis Graham]

I still can't seem to get my scanner to work with debian 1.0.25-4.1. I'm
guessing I need to get up to 1.0.27. My Multi Scanner is a Canon imageclass
MF244dw. Here is the output:

sudo sane-find-scanner

 # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
 # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
 # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.

 # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure
that
 # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.

product=0x2000 [USB Camera-B4.09.24.

 # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported
by
 # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.

 # Not checking for parallel port scanners.

 # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports
 # can't be detected by this program.


I think it is
usb 0x04a9 0x27d2

sudo scanimage -L

No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).

Any help with pointing me in the right direction would be much appreciated.

Thank You
Curtis
