Hi I am now the owner of a Canon Pixma MX525, and I see that this is listed as "untested" in the supported devices list.
I bought it specifically for its duplex ADF scanner and the impression that they support Linux after seeing the scangearmp software offered by Canon. However, while scangearmp does allow you to scan in Linux, the program is buggy and very mouse-based and manual in use. I need scanning to work from various programs/script in a more automated manner. I am a programmer and would like to help getting it supported by SANE. I will provide some initial info below, and hope the SANE project can point me in a useful direction for further work. -Trygve The scanner is connected to a Mint 16 system via usb and network.
