Canon TR4550 - WiFi scanner works only with shipped software
by czezz from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5DXJ3)
Ubuntu 16.04
Device: Canon PIXMA TR4550
Printer - installed and works over WiFi just fine.
Scanner - installed and works over WiFi just fine BUT only with shipped software (scangearmp2).
If I try to use XSANE or Simple Scan, it says there is no scanner.
I did the following on my system but still XSANE and Simple Scan stay blind for it.
Code:$ cat /etc/sane.d/pixma.conf
bjnp://192.168.1.10Code:$ sudo sane-find-scanner
# sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
# result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
# scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.
# No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
# you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.
# No USB scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
# you have loaded a kernel driver for your USB host controller and have setup
# the USB system correctly. See man sane-usb for details.
# Not checking for parallel port scanners.
# Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports
# can't be detected by this program.Code:$ sudo nmap -p- 192.168.1.10
