When I do scanimage -L, I get
#scanimage -L
device `v4l:/dev/video0' is a Noname BisonCam, NB Pro virtual device
device `genesys:libusb:001:002' is a Canon LiDE 110 flatbed scanner
However, when I try sudo scanimage --format=png > test.png, I get
#sudo scanimage --format=png > test.png
scanimage: sane_start: Invalid argument
I don't even know how to handle the firmware, and I don't know if I even need it.
Canon isn't in my /usr/share/sane/ directory, so it doesn't look like I have the firmware for it. I don't know how to install it and I don't understand the wiki instructions on how to do it.
#ls /usr/share/sane/
artec_eplus48u epjitsu gt68xx snapscan xsane
But in /etc/sane.d/genesys.conf, there is
# Canon LiDE 60
usb 0x04a9 0x221c
# Canon LiDE 100
usb 0x04a9 0x1904
# Canon LiDE 110
usb 0x04a9 0x1909
# Canon LiDE 200
usb 0x04a9 0x1905
# Canon 5600F
usb 0x04a9 0x1906
# Canon LiDE 700F
My account is part of the scanner group, so I don't think it is a permission problem.
When I do lsusb, I get
#lsusb

So I don't know what to do now.
I am also awesome wm. I think I've given all the useful information I can give. Let me know if there is anything missing.
