Package: sane
Version: 1.0.14-9
Severity: normal
sane: SANE does not work any more with Epson Perfection 1650. Used to work
perfectly.
Hi.
I have a Epson Perfection 1650 with slide/foto scanning extension (different
top with backlight).
This used to work just fine. The first time around 2002 I had to configure the
printer manually in Debian (potato or sarge?), but after installing (sarge?) on
a different PC the scanner was recognised automatically and all functions
including slide scanning worked at once. It remained that way on sarge and
etch.
Same when, from 2008 to spring this year I used the scanner on Ubuntu 8.04
(hardy heron).
Now, running Debian squeeze on an ASUS K70IJ-TY107L laptop, the scanner never
worked with the drivers that come with sane.
According to http://www.sane-project.org/sane-backends.html#S-EPSON2 and
http://www.sane-project.org/man/sane-epson2.5.html it should be working "Good"
(comment column: "overseas version of the GT-8200UF").
On http://www.sane-project.org/sane-backends.html#S-EPSON2 these printers are
described as:
Model Interface USB id Status Comment
GT-8200U USB 0x04b8/0x0110 Complete
GT-8200UF USB 0x04b8/0x0110 Good
Perfection 1650 USB 0x04b8/0x0110 Complete overseas version of the
GT-8200U
Perfection 1650 PHOTO USB 0x04b8/0x0110 Good overseas version of the
GT-8200UF
Previously on Ubuntu it used to offer the GT-8200 and Perfection 1650 so I
could select 1650 manually which worked fine; before that on Debian, it just
opened the xsane window for the 1650 correctly).
Now, what happens is that sane (starting xsane from inside GIMP usually)
recognises the scanner as a "Epson GT-8200 Flatbed Scanner
[epson2:libusb:007:003]". When clicking for a preview scan, the scanner moved
the sledge with the LEDs to start position and then along the page. Right after
that an error message pops up in xsane saying the scan was aborted due to an
error. When restarting xsane after that, the scanner is not found any more and
it has to be disconnected, switched off and on again, reconnected, to be
recognised the next time xsane starts.
When running xsane from a terminal I get:
andr...@machine:~$ xsane
Gtk-Message: (for origin information, set GTK_DEBUG): failed to retrieve
property `GtkOptionMenu::indicator-size' of type `GtkRequisition' from rc file
value "0" of type `glong'
Gtk-Message: (for origin information, set GTK_DEBUG): failed to retrieve
property `GtkOptionMenu::indicator-spacing' of type `GtkBorder' from rc file
value "0" of type `glong'
[epson2] e2_ext_read: cancel request received
As a (problematic!) workaround I installed iscan, the package offered by Epson
to use this scanner; but it does not work as well as the generic sane solution
used to, also it conflicts with initramfs-tools and I have to uninstall the
package every time initramfs-tools is triggered to rebuild the initramfs. This
also poses a risc because the update-manager will not notify you beforehand
that initramfs needs to be triggered, and today, it happened that the
initramfs-tools trigger was activated, but failed. This was not noted in the
update-manager except that it said something went wrong, but not what did. If I
hadn't looked into this I might not have been able to boot the machine again
after the next shutdown. So I would rather use sane without the iscan package
as I used to.
If there is anything I can try to find out more about this problem or anything
to fix it I would like to know.
Best regards
Andreas
