First of all "scanimage -L" must display your scanner. Also YaST runs "scanimage -L" to show accessible scanners. If this does not happen, SANE (more precisely: the driver) is not able to access the scanner and then neither scanimage nor xsane can work with the scanner.
If "scanimage -L" only displays the scanner when the command is executed by the user "root", only root is able to access the scanner, but not the normal users. In this case the best workaround to get those kind of issues out of sight is to use the "saned" which is a service for scanning via network. In YaST you can set up this workaround via the "Local Host Configuration" under "Other" and "Scanning via Network".
Is there any information on this? I can ping my wireless scanner, so I know it is accessible. But scanimage does not find it. Nor does anything I do in Yast->Other->Scanning via Network. So I am missing a step somewhere. -- Roger Oberholtzer OPQ Systems / Ramböll RST Ramböll Sverige AB Krukmakargatan 21 P.O.
