Hi Robert, Sorry to be vague, but I don't actually scan much so the last time I recall doing it I was running trusty.
Yes, the proprietary brother drivers are required for wireless scanning AIUI. $ dpkg -l | grep brscan ii brscan-skey 0.2.4-1 amd64 Brother Linux scanner S-KEY tool ii brscan4 0.4.2-3 amd64 Brother Scanner Driver Gah - I've just got an updated simple-scan package (3.13.4-0ubuntu1). The behaviour with this version is different; simple-scan tellms me there is no scanner connected, yet if I click "scan", it clearly is talking to the scanner (which I can hear whirring in the background). So, although I no longer get ENOSPC, the scanned image never appears in simple-scan. When I quit simple-scan, it seems a command is sent to the scanner to reset since it sounds like it is resetting itself. Updated simple-scan debug log attached. ** Attachment added: "'simple-scan --debug' log" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/simple-scan/+bug/1344869/+attachment/4158766/+files/simple-scan-21july2014.log.gz -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1344869 Title: simple-scan consumes 100% cpu and fills disk with logs attempting to scan wirelessly with Brother MFC-7860DW To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/simple-scan/+bug/1344869/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
