Great, so we have 3 eSCL backends now: sane-escl, AirSane, and sane-airscan.
Thanks to all of you to support this big group of scanners, probably all in
printer/scanner-multi-function devices which do AirPrint.
AirSane is not backend, it is a frontend. It works as AirScan server, and uses
SANE backends for access to scanners.
Sorry, realized this later, too.
So with that software (plus Linux, SANE, CUPS, cups-filters) we get
Old printer + old scanner + Raspberry Pi = Multi-Function device which prints,
scans, and copies with everything which is not Windows. Without
device/model-specific drivers. :)
Alexander, could you also try to scan on a USB-connected device via ippusbxd
(https://github.com/OpenPrinting/ippusbxd)? Note that you need to supply the
URI manually (should be "http://localhost:60000/eSCL/...";) as ippusbxd does
not support yet DNS-SD registration for multi-function devices
(https://github.com/OpenPrinting/ippusbxd/issues/11).
I'm very busy today and tomorrow. Hope I'll be able to try a day after tomorrow.
OK, no problem. I have already inaugurated the never-ending series of bug
reports which one has on typical free software projects:

First time that I report bug #1 on a project.
