Brother scanner problems
by wufo from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4QTW2)
I have installed a Brother DCP-7040 printer/scanner and the print part works fine. I am having problems with the scanner part.
After running the Brother installer and adding the user to the lp group i do this:
sane-find-scanner
..
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04f9, product=0x01e9) at libusb:001:019
..
So it finds the scanner.But, I run
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).
And, of course simple scan, etc find no scanner.
ONe detects the scanner and the other does not. Why?
I know the sacnner works as I used it under Windows.
