[sane-devel] Canon ImageClass MF269dw

[Colin DuPlantis]

I was able to use a Canon ImageClass MF260-series with vanilla Ubuntu 
18.04 recently, I'm pretty sure it was the MF264dw.

I ordered one for myself, but failed to notice that I was getting the 
MF269dw instead of the 264.

SANE-powered apps don't seem to be able to detect the scanner, though 
the printer works fine.

$ 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.

   # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be

   # 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 also tried using the network connection. I looked at the pixma.conf as 
the best bet for the driver, but noticed that the printer is not 
listening on port 8612.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.
