[opensuse] No SANE devices found
I have SuSE 13.2 and try to install Brother DCP-7040 as a scanner (before I had installed it as a printer, with some difficulties, but eventually with success). Now, since YaST Scanner does not support my Brother DCP-7040, I downloaded two rpm's from http://support.brother.com/: - brscan3-0.2.13-1.i386.rpm (for 32 bit) and - brscan3-0.2.13-1.x86_64.rpm (for 64 bit). At first, I successfully installed the 32 bit version invoking "rpm -ihv --nodeps brscan3-0.2.13-1.i386.rpm". But when I invoked /usr/bin/scanimage, I got the error message: *scanimage: no SANE devices found* So, I removed the installation and tried the 64 bit version. But then, at invoking /usr/bin/scanimage, I got the same error message. Now, I have two questions: Is /usr/bin/scanimage the correct program to be invoked for scanning? And if so, how can I create the missing SANE devices? Thank you in advance!

Thank you very much, Jean-Daniel! I downloaded the installation file indicated on the web site above and followed the advises given there. The installation worked perfectly and without any difficulties. There was also printed a test page, which was o.k. But then, when everything was completed, I wanted to test scanning too. Unfortunately, there is no indication which program has to be invoked for this purpose. So, I again tried /usr/bin/scanimage, and the result was the same error message as before: *scanimage: no SANE devices found* Now, I am convinced that /usr/bin/scanimage is the wrong scanning program. Do you have any idea what else I could try to invoke? Saluts tristes, Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

dunno. I have a brother dcp-7055w and when I launch "Acquisition d'images" http://dodin.org/owncloud/index.php/s/fYJKmt81IQJVRO1 it founds the scanner (and the other ones) scanlite gives exactly the same result (same windows), and the scanner works jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

What do you type for invoking your scanner?

Neither have I a program called "Acquisition d'images" (or perhaps "Image Acquisition" in English), nor have I "scanlite", nor know I where these programs are available.

if you don't install any scanning software, you can't scan! some apps (libreoffice?) can do that, but installing sane/xsane/scanlite is a bare minimum

don't you know about yast? you install the software from there, and you have also there a scanner entry. Using default setup should be good I see no scanner group in my own config, so you should not have problem to scan as user jdd -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

jdd Does your system have XSane? That works fine in the pclos-kde system.

But when I invoked /usr/bin/scanimage, I got the error message:
*scanimage: no SANE devices found*
I encountered this problem couple of years ago with my MFC7460DN. Later, when I was installing the latest drivers using Brother install file on my Debian Jessie the problem did not show up any longer. 1. Check if brsanenetdevice4.cg file in /opt/brother/scanner/ contains correct information about your MFC. If not edit it accordingly. 2. When I encountered this problem 2 years back I resolved it by running in terminal the following command (after installing all Brother drivers certainly): brsaneconfig4 -a name=MFC7460DN_Scanner model=MFC7460DN ip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx Change the model number accordingly to your model. Pay attention that in my case it did not want any dashes in the model name. Check if if would be the case with your model. And certainly put your device IP instead of xxx-s. :-) The last - provided your device is a network device. If it is USB - search Brother "readme" files for answer or try to execute brsaneconfig4 --help, man brsaneconfig4. Do some basic research. See if this helps. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

1. Check if brsanenetdevice4.cg file in /opt/brother/scanner/ contains correct information about your MFC. If not edit it accordingly. Juan; none of that is necessary with the 7040, but it did remind me of something I completely forgot about, which is quite necessary.
Wolfgang, in addition to installing the rpms, you need to edit /etc/udev/rules.d/55-libsane.rules to add the following lines: # Brother DCP-7040 ATTR{idVendor}=="04f9", ATTR{idProduct}=="01e9", MODE="0664", GROUP="lp", ENV{libsane_matched}="yes" Otherwise, the device will not be available to an ordinary user. I cannot recall where I found the information (that was, after all, way back with 12.1), but 01e9 definitely is the correct device ID for the 7040. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
I have SuSE 13.2 and try to install Brother DCP-7040 as a scanner (before I had installed it as a printer, with some difficulties, but eventually with success). I have had this printer/scanner working well under 12.1, 12.3 and now Leap 42.1. It took a bit of work to get it working under 12.1 (mostly I

If the scanner is showing up in YaST, it should be working properly -- printer as well. If the scanner is successfully installed, it should appear in the results of "scanimage -L": loki~ # scanimage -L device `brother3:bus7;dev2' is a Brother DCP-7040 USB scanner I do not use scanimage myself, finding it cumbersome to work with.. Xsane is much better. If you do use scanimage, use device name "brother3"; including the bus location on the command line merely confuses the software. Note that if you also install the package "brscan-skey" you will also be able to scan documents from the printer control panel (second button from the left on the panel). Current version is 0.2.4-1.
Now, I have two questions: Is /usr/bin/scanimage the correct program to be invoked for scanning? And if so, how can I create the missing SANE devices? Again, I would use xsane, as it is much easier to use. Also be sure to confirm in YaST that the scanner is installed; if it is, it should work.
PS, use the 64-bit rpms; they have been available since opensuse 12.3, and I have never had any problem with them. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Nothing more was needed.

I usually scan in GIMP. It works perfectly. -- Vojtěch Zeisek Komunita openSUSE GNU/Linuxu Community of the openSUSE GNU/Linux https://www.opensuse.org/ https://trapa.cz/
