Using an application called "scanner utility" I was able to successfully scan at 96 dpi with my Canon LIDE 25. When I tried about 600 dpi it wouldn't work but appeared to be working in the application, showing some progress in the status bar.
The utility is quite limited, and it only saves the file in a graphics file format. But this utility can apparently keep the port open long enough to do a low res scan. Maybe this will be helpful to someone. -- Canon Lide25 (plustek backend) scanner does not scan via gui https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/85488 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
