<font size="+1">Hello,<br>
This is my first post to Sane and I trust that I am sending it to
the correct forum.<br>
<br>
I have just purchased a Canon Pixma MG5740 and tried to interface
it with my system comprising a Ubuntu 16.04 64bit operating
system.<br>
I first connect the device using a USB cable and was able to print
but could not get the scanner to work. Running lsusb resulted in
the following message <br>
<br>
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 04a9:178e Canon, Inc. <br>
<br>
I then tried setting up the device in wifi mode by adding mfnp
://192.168.1.100 to the pixma.conf file. Running scanimage -L
produced this result<br>
<br>
[bjnp] udp_command: ERROR - no data received<br>
[bjnp] bjnp_init_device_structure: Cannot read mac address,
skipping this scanner<br>
[bjnp] udp_command: ERROR - no data received<br>
[bjnp] add_scanner: ERROR - Cannot read scanner make & model:
mfnp://192.168.1.100:8610<br>
I confirmed that the address 192.168.1.100 is correct for the
MG5740<br>
<br>
I can access the printer in both USB and WIFI mode.<br>
Any advice on how I may resolve the scanner issue would be much
appreciated.<br>
Eric<br>
