Package: simple-scan
Version: 3.16.1.1-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
I have two HP MFC devices
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I tried to pick the scanner I wanted from the simple-scan preferences
* What was the outcome of this action?
Since the to MFCs are the same model simple-scan gives them the same name,
I can't tell which is which and they are not in the same office.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Some way of telling which MFC is which, perhaps based on the cups description
or location
Here are my two scanners:
$ scanimage -L
device `hpaio:/net/HP_Color_LaserJet_MFP_M476dw?ip=' is a
Hewlett-Packard HP_Color_LaserJet_MFP_M476dw all-in-one
device `hpaio:/net/HP_Color_LaserJet_MFP_M476dw?ip=yy' is a
Hewlett-Packard HP_Color_LaserJet_MFP_M476dw all-in-one
simple-scan shows them both as HP_Color_LaserJet_MFP_M476dw.
gscan2pdf at least shows me the ip=xx part.
But what would be nicest is if I could see the cups description or location
information.
