Hello!
I followed the wiki to make my scanner run
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/SANE
adding the user to group lp:
| Code: | gpasswd -a darfwas lp
gpasswd: group 'lp' does not exist in /etc/group |
adding the user to the groups usb and scanner works flawlessly
Cups is installed as well
| Code: | | [ebuild R ] net-print/cups-2.4.10-r1::gentoo USE="X acl dbus pam systemd usb -debug -kerberos -openssl (-selinux) -static-libs -test -xinetd -zeroconf" ABI_X86="(64) -32 (-x32)" 0 KiB |
as root:
| Code: | scanimage -L
device `pixma:04A91912_4ACEB1' is a CANON CanoScan LiDE 400 multi-function peripheral |
as user:
| Code: | 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). |
For all processes running on user level that tries to find and add the scanner running on KDE. The system is asking for root password but finds nothing.
As a sidenote I did a fresh gentoo install but the old installation was able to operate the scanner.
Thank you.
