[sane-devel] Canon MX530 - Error during device I/O

[Rolf Bensch]

Hi Stephen,

Please try my SANE Release PPA:
https://launchpad.net/~rolfbensch/+archive/ubuntu/sane-release .

If your scanner is working with this, please try my inofficial test ppa:
https://launchpad.net/~rolfbensch/+archive/ubuntu/sane-test .

Other users reported similar problems with their scanners. I suppose a
problem with one of the recent commits to the git repository.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Rolf
