Hello, I bought a Kyocera ECOSYS M6526cdn multi function device. This is a rather new model based on an older Kyocera Mita FS multi functional device. I got the printer working flawlessly with CUPS. But I struggle with the scanner.
It it connected via Ethernet. The supported devices list doesn't list this model as compatible. I tried sane-find-scanner as well as scanimage -L But neither one found the scanner. sane-find-scanner appears to be the wrong tool for this: The man page states “[…] is a command line tool to find SCSI and USB scanners […]” scanimage -L fails with “No scanners were identified.” I assume this is because SANE is not set up to find the scanner on the network. A search for “ethernet” on the supported devices list reveals that SANE supports numerous network scanners. However, googling for “SANE connect network scanner” only finds tools and tutorials to share a locally already working scanner with other hosts, which is not at all what I want. Thus I assume that I don't need saned to get it working. How can I make SANE look for my network scanner (equivalent to sane-find-scanner)? Or more importantly, how can I get this scanner working with SANE? Is there any howto or tutorial you would recommend? There's a man page for sane-scsi and sane-usb but no sane-ethernet or sane-network, unfortunately. My system: Printer/Scanner: Kyocera ECOSYS M6526cdn (flatbed and ADF) http://www.kyoceradocumentsolutions.eu/index/products/product/ecosysm6526cdn.technical_specification.html OS: Debian GNU/Linux 7 (stable), kernel 3.2.0 sane version: 1.0.14-9 libsane version: 1.0.22-7.4 I'm happy to provide further details, just let me know. Any help appreciated.
