<p><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">Hello,</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">my Canon MP230 works fine with sane and archlinux 64bit - but only as root!</span></p>
<pre><strong><em><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">scanimage -V</span></em></strong><br /><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">says:<br /><br />scanimage (sane-backends) 1.0.24; backend version 1.0.24</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">-> OK</span><br /><br /></pre>
<pre><strong><em><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">scanimage -L</span></em></strong><br /><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">outputs:</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">device `v4l:/dev/video0' is a Noname BisonCam, NB Pro virtual device</span><br /><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">device `pixma:04A9175F_315075' is a CANON Canon PIXMA MP230 multi-function peripheral</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">then <strong><em>sudo scanimage --device pixma:04A9175F_315075 --format=tiff > test.tiff</em></strong></span><br /><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">-> all is fine, and after that xsane works too.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">But, only as sudo. As a "normal User" i have no scanner access,</span><br /><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">i am in the group "scanner".</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">Greetings,</span><br /><span style="font-family: andale mono,times;">Dino</span><br /></pre>
