hello,
I installed ArchLinux on my T400 yesterday and I'm trying to configure my Canon MG3550 now.
The device is connected over wifi and printing works fine, but I also need the scanfunction which already drives me crazy the whole day.
Sometimes the device starts to print, but it takes a lot of tries.
I installed sane and here is my device output:
$ scanimage -L
device `pixma:MG3500_43786B000000' is a CANON Canon PIXMA MG3500 Series multi-function peripheral
I am not sure if "sane-find-scanner" is supposed to show me scanners connected over wifi, but here is the output:
$ sudo sane-find-scanner
[sudo] Passwort für serhat:
# sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
# result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
# scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.
# No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
# you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.
# Also you need support for SCSI Generic (sg) in your operating system.
# If using Linux, try "modprobe sg".
# No USB scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
# you have loaded a kernel driver for your USB host controller and have setup
# the USB system correctly. See man sane-usb for details.
# Not checking for parallel port scanners.
# Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports
# can't be detected by this program.
Ive took a look into the wiki and found this:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/SA … ction_1270
I outlined everything except pixma, saved the file and retried the scan, which didn't work.
Scanning with resolution wont work either.
I tried it with a GUI (Xsane), but still get the same error as a pop-up.
My system is up to date.
Thanks
Best regards

I haven't tested any of this (don't have the hw), but This may be relevant, though it doesn't use sane AFAICT.
