[sane-devel] Canon Pixma G2000 support

[Rolf Bensch]

Hi,

I just added your scanner to SANEs code.

You need to use my ppa:
https://launchpad.net/~rolfbensch/+archive/ubuntu/sane-git . But please
be patient, the ppa will support your scanner with the next version
tomorrow (1.0.27+git20170902).

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Rolf
