Hello everybody, I recently bought a USB scanner, which is the Acer 3300 USB. The first time I ran xsane there was no problem but now the scanner won't work. I found I need a firmware file and I installed it (it was under another name than I thought at first sorry about the last post) I attached the /etc/sane.d/snapscan.conf file which I needed to change, but now xsane says, no devices available Before the changes to /etc/sane.d/snapscan.conf the scanner was found but now, I get, ----- sane-find-scanner # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that # you have loaded a SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter. found USB scanner (UNKNOWN vendor and product) at device /dev/usbscanner # Your USB scanner was detected. It may or may not be supported by # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage. # `UNKNOWN vendor and product' means that there seems to be a scanner at this # device file but the vendor and product ids couldn't be identified. # Currently identification only works with Linux versions >= 2.4.8. You may # need to configure your backend manually, see the backend's manpage. # Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports can't be # detected by this program. ----- 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). ----- What is wrong - and how should I start to fix it ?
