I'm having the same issue with my networked Brother MFC 440CN. B&W scanning is very fast with Simple Scan, but color takes forever (even at 300dpi setting). It seems that Simple Scan is setting the scanner to scan at the highest quality regardless of the DPI setting for color, and it's causing the scanner to move the scan head back and forth as it scans along.
XSane doesn't have this problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/795917 Title: Brother MFC-410CN scan over network excruciatingly slow To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/simple-scan/+bug/795917/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
