Title:
Brother USB Scanner is recognised but not working
Status in sane-backends package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
The other day I updated Ubuntu and when I tried to scan something, it
would not work. Both gscan2pdf an Xsane brought out this:
scanimage: open of device brother2:bus4;dev1 failed: Error during
device I/O
I spent some hours googling and looking for help, but nothing got my Scanner
working again.
What I did:
- I reinstalled all packages of sane and the brother driver
- I tried another USB-Port
- I tried it with the Live-CD of Ubuntu 8.10 (32 Bit)
- with Windows Xp Pro the scanner works fine
- stopping ehci
Further Information:
- Scanner is a Brother MFC 465 CN connected via USB 2.0 cabel
- I am Using Ubuntu 8.10 32 Bit
It seems that one of the updates caused all that trouble, but using
the (older) Livecd didn't work ether, so I suppose it is a Problem
that is not yet fixed. While googling I found some other guys with the
same problem, but none of their workarounds could help, so I would be
happy, if this could be fixed in 9.04 :)
