No module for scanner?
I have a usb scanner Epson Perfection 2480 PHOTO, it works perfectly at windows, but at Linux I have a problem.
As I understand,I need the scanner module to make device working properly. But in menuconfig I see only one thing related to scanners: "Driver for Microtek Scanmaker X6 USB scanner". Is this a driver for all scanners, or where can I get normal driver? |
Have a look at the SANE website, your scanner is supported
http://www.sane-project.org/cgi-bin/...n+3480&bus=any |
Module "scanner" only works with the 2.4 kernel. If you're using the 2.6 kernel, you need to set up your scanner with libusb (see here )
Have you already run "sane-find-scanner" to configure your scanner? |
My scanner is supported, here is the output from sane-find-scanner
Code:
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0121 [EPSON Scanner]) at libusb:001:003 |
In snapscan.conf make sure that the line under the name of your scanner is not commented out. It should be something like: usb 0x04b8 0x0121
Save the file and make it executable. No other files in /etc/sane.d should be executable, only snapscan.conf Run scanimage -L and see if the scanner is recognized. (You may need to reboot before) |

As I can understand, my system sees the scanner but does nothing =\. Here is the output from dmesg: usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 usb 1-1: new device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 usb 1-1: default language 0x0409 usb 1-1: Product: EPSON Scanner usb 1-1: Manufacturer: EPSON usb 1-1: hotplug usb 1-1: adding 1-1:1.0 (config #1, interface 0) usb 1-1:1.0: hotplug uhci_hcd 0000:00:11.2: port 2 portsc 01ab,00 hub 1-0:1.0: port 2, status 0301, change 0003, 1.5 Mb/s hub 1-0:1.0: debounce: port 2: total 100ms stable 100ms status 0x301 |
First, post the result of "lsmod" and "cat /proc/filesystems | grep usb".
Go to /proc/bus/usb. You should have two directories (amongst others) there, one called 001 and one called 003. Make all files in those directories readable and writable |
Great thanks to you!
After I changed permissions in /proc/bus/usb it started to work. Linuxquestions.org is the best site! Thanks again :) |
Glad you got it working;)
