Hi, I'm using an up-to-date Jaunty and have experienced the above problem ever since switching to Linux.
However today I thought I'd try again. Initially I had the same problems: Xsane identified the scanner but would stall at about 25% and freeze. I read through many of the older posts here and tried a couple of things. * I added myself (as a user) to the saned group. * I installed gnome-scan to try something different (it worked to a fashion but would crash often so I removed it). * I used the sane-utils package to test for correct scanner detection * I then rebooted (with the scanner connected and powered) and retried xsane but adjusted the resolution from 150dpi to 300dpi. Subsequently scanning worked. I scanned multiple pages and saved as both png and pdf. Work that one out... -- HP ScanJet 5300C doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/83587 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
