My CanoScan N676U is not fully recognised.
I'm using xsane 0.995-3.fc9(i386)in Fedora 9.
Please can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong?

Result from "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.

Result from "sane-find-scanner"
Found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9 [Canon], product=0x220d [CanoScan], chip=LM9832/3) at libusb:004:004
Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by
SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.

CONFIGURATION
To use your scanner with this backend, you need at least two entries in
the configuration file /etc/sane.d/plustek.conf
[usb] vendor-id product-id
device /dev/usbscanner

I've added two lines as follows:
[usb] 0x04A9 0x220D
device /dev/usbscanner

FILES
/etc/sane.d/plustek.conf - "exists as shown above"
/usr/lib/sane/libsane-plustek.a - "doesn't exist"
/usr/lib/sane/libsane-plustek.so - "Message received:
Can't display, no application installed for this file type"

Please help

Did you try running scanimage -L as root? If root can see it, then it's a permissions problem and you need to add/modify your udev rules to fix it.

Also, have you confirmed that /dev/usbscanner is your actual device name?

Yes to both questions, but still trying some other ideas
