OK, somehow both backends didn't like what you had on your parallel port, it seems. > ...but it is still not fully working: > > silverboxy:~# scanimage -L > device `umax1220u:libusb:001:005' is a UMAX Astra 1220U flatbed scanner > silverboxy:~# scanimage --lamp-off --device-name=umax1220u:libusb:001:005 > scanimage: sane_start: Invalid argument > silverboxy:~# Does scanning as a user work ? Could you try to unplug the scanner, plug it in again, and try to scan (without running scanimage -L first)? If that works, try moving umax1220u at the top of the list in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf, and try running scanimage -L then scanimage. If it works that way, then the scanner is getting confused by another backend checking for one of its supported devices. > I am just wondering, was there recently a sane upgrade in sarge (or why do I > see now all these issues???). Not in the last 3 weeks. 1.0.15-8 will hit Sarge in a couple of days.
