Printer and scanner

i have an epson stylus sx 110(printer,scanner and copy) which  works fine with cups and gutenprint till i install sane..when i do that administration printing doesn't recognize the printer anymore.i tried proprietary driver but same thing happens..is there anything else but cups and sane to look for in order to use both features, print and scan, in the same time?

Re: Printer and scanner

first uninstall foomatic*

then you must (try) create a udev rule, as wrote in our wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CU … CUPS_1.4.x

i've done this before get both scanner and printer working....
