README for sane 1.0.x
REQUIREMENTS
PRE-INSTALL
1. If you're using an USB scanner, create the group 'scanner' and
add all users which need access to your device.
POST-INSTALL
1. To find the vendor/product id of your scanner, run the command:
# sane-find-scanner -q
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9 [Canon], product=0x2204 [CanoScan] at libusb:002:002
You need the 'vendor' id (0x04a9) and the 'product' id (0x2204)
2. Check if /etc/hotplug/usb/libsane.usermap already knows about
your scanner. If your scanner is not in this list, add a line
like the following, remember to replace 0x04a9 and 0x2204 with
your values:
libusbscanner 0x0003 0x04a9 0x2204 0x0000 0x0000 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00000000
3. Check the file permissions in /proc/bus/usb after you have plugged
in your scanner device.
# ls -l /proc/bus/usb/001
total 0
