At this point if the correct scanner is selected (I don't recall you mentioning the brand/model) just click on finish. And as it has been suggested by someone else check that you don't have the permissions set to strict in /etc/sysconfig/security. Also check /etc/sane.d/dll.conf and make sure you model is uncommented (remove the # character from the start of the line). > 13. selected the line for the scanner > 14. clicked Edit > 15. confirmed that the correct driver was selected This should show on the first screen that shows the scanner selected. > 16. clicked Next > 17. clicked Finish > 18. closed YaST > > > I still can't see the scanner as a normal user.
