Rainer can you try now with the sane-backends-9999.ebuild, which will
install the current git version of the backends. I'm hopeful that having
something at least as recent as the known working version may work out
for you.
Done, but still no joy ...
You could try rebuilding the backends with the following command:
EGIT_OVERRIDE_COMMIT_SANE_PROJECT_BACKENDS=6b7052c4 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="**"
emerge -av1 =media-gfx/sane-backends-9999
That will install git commit 6b7052c4, which should get you pretty close
to the same version of the backend that you originally reported working
on Ubuntu, which was version 1.0.28+git20190831-xenial0 from the PPA.
Also, in your original email you reported setting the timeouts as per
the following:
$ grep '^[^#]+$' *.conf
dll.conf:pixma
pixma.conf:bjnp-timeout=100
pixma.conf:bjnp://new-host/timeout=5000
pixma.conf:bjnp-timeout=100
In your output below it's showing a timeout of 100, but I presume you
intended to override that to 5000. You might want to double check that
your config changes are still in place.
I placed two single-sided originals into the ADF and then ran
$ scanimage -V
scanimage (sane-backends) 1.0.28-871-g8270a82b-dirty; backend version 1.0.28
$ scanimage '--batch=.%03d0.png' --batch-increment 1 --batch-print

The scanner scanned the first sheet ok, placed it in the output tray,
partly pulled in the second sheet, and then stalled, while at the same
time signalling on its display that it is busy and having WiFi traffic.
It ignored any buttons pressed and had to be power-cycled.
I know about the existence of environment variable "SANE_DEBUG_BJNP" but
have no idea what value to set it to to provide reasonable information.
Could someone please guide me?
Sincerely,
Rainer
PS: And plenty of kudos to Bruce who went into all this trouble of sett-
ing up this ebuild and instructing me how to use it :-)
No probs ;) I'm hoping that from the overlay we can get better exposure
to testing and get new releases updated in gentoo earlier.
