Hi list, Here comes yet another newbie with a request for help installing their scanner. Mine is a used Philips MFD 6020 which I am trying to install under Mac OS 10.6.8. The printer works, the scanner does not: The frontend doesn't show any devices in the list.
Although the scanner is not listed among the devices supported by SANE, the the manufacturer's instructions say to install the TWAIN SANE Interface for Mac OS X and then the drivers in the package downloaded from their homepage. This I did, and since it didn't work, I first had a look at the TWAIN SANE Frequently Asked Questions, and from there went on to read the documentation on the SANE website. It looks like my scanner is detected, but the SANE backend may not be configured correctly for my printer. Unfortunately, I don't know what backend my printer is supposed to use, so I'm stuck. Here is the output from the Terminal in Mac OS: $ sane-find-scanner [...] found USB scanner (vendor=0x079b [MFPrinter], product=0x0093 [ Laser Pro LL2 1]) at libusb:001:003-079b-0093-00-00 [...] $ scanimage -L No scanners were identified. [...] Can anyone help? Where do I go from here? Thanks, - MR
