Hello,

I'm using a raspberry pi (Jessie) and i use it to share my printers (one
Samsung and one Canon MG5750) other my network thru cups.

I would like also to share the scanner of my Canon MG5750 other my network.

First of all i would like to to make the scanner work out right on the
raspberry.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1) I've connected the pi and the canon with a usb wire.

2) I've upgraded the distribution on the rapsberry and then installed
sane-utils (version 1.0.24-8+deb8u1)

Description: API library for scanners -- utilities
 SANE stands for "Scanner Access Now Easy" and is an application
 programming interface (API) that provides standardized access to any
 raster image scanner hardware (flatbed scanner, hand-held scanner,
 video- and still-cameras, frame-grabbers, etc.). The SANE standard is
 free and its discussion and development are open to everybody. The
 current source code is written to support several operating systems,
 including GNU/Linux, OS/2, Win32 and various Unices and is available
 under the GNU General Public License (commercial applications and
 backends are welcome, too, however).
 .
 This package includes the command line frontend scanimage, the saned
 server and the sane-find-scanner utility, along with their documentation.

When i do "sudo scanimage -L" i get :

No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).

Then i do "sudo sane-find-scanner" and i get :

# sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
  # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
  # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.
  # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure
that
  # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.
  # Also you need support for SCSI Generic (sg) in your operating system.
  # If using Linux, try "modprobe sg".

  # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be

When i do "lsusb" i get :

Is the scanner of the MG5750 supported by sane on a raspberry pi ?

Do i have to installed something else to make it work out right ?

Thank You for your help.

Regards, Bart.
