[sane-devel] Canon TR4529 (PIXMA TR4500 Series)

[Rolf Bensch]

Hi JMS,

Please report if both, (1) 1200dpi scans and (2) scanning from document
feeder are working. You scanner still is marked as "untested"
(http://www.sane-project.org/lists/sane-backends-cvs.html#S-PIXMA).

I wouldn't use Ubuntu's deb packages for Debian. You need libjpeg if you
e.g. want to save images as jpeg from scanimage. Please install from
sources as described in INSTALL.linux
(http://www.sane-project.org/docs.html).

Many thanks for your help.

Cheers,
Rolf
