[sane-devel] sane-devel Digest, Vol 173, Issue 25

Sat Nov 23 17:55:02 GMT 2019

Hi Yuri -

Thanks for your detailed email! I ran the commands and it seems it detects
the scanner when running as sudo.
Thus *sudo sane-find-scanner* works, but *sane-find-scanner* does not.

In your interpreter commands noted, some of them did not run even though
the previous ones worked.

Instead of explaining them, thought I would just send them over. Thus he
commands are attached.

But essentially it seems to be problem with finding the interpreter
command. I tried with sudo as well:
...
monosij at blue:~$ interpreter usb 0x04b8 0x013a
/usr/lib/esci/libesci-interpreter-perfection-v600
interpreter: command not found
monosij at blue:~$ sudo interpreter usb 0x04b8 0x013a
/usr/lib/esci/libesci-interpreter-perfection-v600
sudo: interpreter: command not found
monosij at blue:~$ interpreter usb 0x04b8 0x013a
/usr/lib/esci/libesci-interpreter-perfection-v600
interpreter: command not found
monosij at blue:~$ iscan-registry -r interpreter usb 0x04b8 0x013a
/usr/lib/esci/libesci-interpreter-perfection-v600
sed: couldn't open temporary file /var/lib/iscan/sedkJn36b: Permission
denied
monosij at blue:~$ iscan
Gtk-Message: 12:28:42.614: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
monosij at blue:~$ sudo iscan   *-- works and opens iscan, detects right
scanner and scans fine*
Gtk-Message: 12:49:07.331: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"
...
The list of commands I ran is attached.

I am trying to get the scanner to work with gsan2pdf with which worked fine
before - and that still does not detect the scanner.

Thank you for your help.

Mono

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).
