I've seen instructions for pixma and canon mp scanners, but I couldn't find anything for the USB Canoscan LIDE 100. Anything exist for 4.3.1?
http://www.sane-project.org/sane-backends.html says it needs the genesys backend, but I can't seem to find anything for puppy in these forums.
Many thanks!

Go to /etc/sane.d and open the file genesys.conf. At the end, add the line
These are the vendor/product codes for your printer. Try Xsane again.
If that doesn't work, try a new Puppy like Lupu 525. From the Ubuntu thread, it sounds like there are working drivers available for your LIDE 100.
If it still doesn't work, post back. I can build you a genesys backend from the newest sources.
Code: Select all
