Sorry I didn't get that to you earlier ... was trying to post from Dillo on the live CD and somehow lost the post. KJ

rcrsn51: Installed the scangearmp_common-1.5.pet, then the scangearmp_mx340-1.50.pet on lucid528v4 ... ran "scangearmp" from CLI and got this error: Didn't try it on slacko533F. KJ

Are you sure you got the scangearmp_common-1.5 and not the 1.3? Because I don't get that error with 1.5.

rcrsn51: Oops .... You are correct .... I installed the 1.3 and not the scangearmp_common-1.5 .pet. Corrected and now scan works on my MX340 on Lucid528v4 ... time to "save" to USB flashdrive. Thanks for all your help and "talking" me thru. the process. I'm guessing that scangearmp should also work on slacko533F? Thanks again ....

EDIT: Also works with Fluppy12 and Saluki22 .... Nice job ... Thanks ... KJ

Here are the scanner drivers for the Canon MG2100 series. You must install both.

This is a new package. Please provide feedback.

Here is the driver for the MP160. Use it with libgimp2.0-2.6.8 and scangearmp_common-1.4 from the first page.

I had occasional problems with this old unit locking up on the first scan after power-up. Just turn it off and on, and run scangearmp again.

Great job on the drivers rcrsn51.

cant get mp230 scanner to work i
installed all the stuff >_< (suposodely it should be compatible with mp250)
even installed the official mp230 scangear deb from canon site
O.o


# sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the

# 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.

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9 [Canon], product=0x175f [MP230 series]) at libusb:001:003
# Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by

scanimage -L
No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages.).

cable maybe disconected or turned off bla bla

@spoileras:Which Puppy version are you using?

slacko-5.4-opera-PAE



irrelevant
the printing works fine lol

How do you know that the Puppy version is irrelevant to picking a scanner driver?

no i wasnt meaning that
just saying that printing works i meant its irrelevant
with the subject (scanner) XD

Your MP230 is not supported by SANE, so "scanimage -L" will not detect it.

However, the Scangearmp driver from Canon should work. But it's not enough to install the DEBs just by clicking on them. Used the candi tool.

wow amazing XD work like charm XD thaaanks

Thanks very much for putting all this info up. With the pixma_backend_5xx-1 I have managed to get my scanner working over wifi on my Canon Pixma MP560.

I am able to scan fine from the Sane program on the computer, however I am unable to use the control pad on the printer itself to scan to the computer. The control pad on the printer simply does not list the puppy computer as a destination to scan to. When using the printer control pad with windows I am able to see the windows computer, tell it to scan multi page, build PDF etc and upon scanning the Canon scan program pops up with my scanned files. Do you know if it is possible to get a similar function working in Puppy?

No it is not. You must start the scanning job from the Puppy machine.

However, you may find some operations easier to do with Peasyscan than with Xsane.

Ok thanks for letting me know. It's a pity scanning from the control pad of the printer won't work, but never mind.

Thanks for your help

Still nothing available for Canon Isensys MF-3220.

I can't find these for a Canon MG 2220.

The printer is working fine, but not the scanner part.

Thanks.
