Hi, I've downloaded the frontend, the backends, aswell as xsane. The problem is, that when I do a sane-find-scanner it doesn't find my scanner. I've read that I have to use the umax_pp command in order to install this scanner but when I do umax_pp, it says to me umax_pp: command not found. What is what I have to do for being able to use it? So far, I'm completely lost :-(

Some linux distribution have their on purpose tool for doing such, but you can do it by hand by editing the dll.conf file which is usually located in /etc/sane.d or /usr/etc/sane.d . Search for a line #umax_pp and remove the # to turn it into: umax_pp Then run scanimage -L again. You should also get sure that the ppddev device is working, or the backend won't work. The umax_pp tool is included in the full source archive you can download and ccompile. Including it or not in the linux distribution you use is a design choice. Regards, Stef
