Hi, Some remarks: 5.1: The howto-page is not mine; it has been made by Steve Sheriff. After he took it down, I got quite a few questions about the disapaered link, so I asked Steve if I could host a copy. And it's his model, not mine (allas...) 6: You put the scanimage command as: $ scanimage -d /dev/scanner0 --format pnm > outfile.pnm I remember some discussions about the -d argument. I think it should be -d backend:device, f.e. $ scanimage -d umax:/dev/sg6 --format pnm > outfile.pnm 8: Maybe we should think about a more general way of toubleshooting. Some maufacturers (f.e. of copiers) use a flowchart-like algoritm to find the actions. It would be nice if we could make somethong like that. ljm
