Hi Ashwin!
That's good news too then!
For sure, the libsane rule needed to be adjusted for PID 1723,
corresponding to MP470.
When the Sane driver will be updated with the changes for recent Pixma
MFPs, the libsane
rules will be produced automatically when compiling Sane, provided that
the .desc
here is the code:
Bus 005 Device 002: ID 04a9:1723 Canon, Inc.
let me know when the driver is ready. will be better if you can put out a
patch, so i can do it via apt-get source.
thanks!

Hi Nicholas,
Good news! It works. I think the only kink was the order of a few things:
1. compile
2. copy
3. sudo ldconfig -- just in case
4. udev hacks + replug device
5. Try everything else (scanimage -L)
If 3 and 4 are interchanged, I get a scanimage: sane_start: Invalid argument
I added this
Hello,
I just bought a Canon Pixma MP470 printer+scanner device and I cannot get it to
work with sane. The printer part seems to work with the MP150 driver.
I can pitch in with some usb scan info, if some one tells me where to find the
docs.
