Recently did a clean install of Mint20
I installed XSane, it scanned for devices and found my scanner,
Brother DCP-J7720W which is wireless connected, and I scanned my
document. It appeared to scan but the viewer screen shows nothing and
if I try to save the file I get
"Error during save: out of memory"
Memory really should not be a problem, 16GB RAM showing 30% used,
100GB free on disk.
Other information
Document Scanner works and I can save the file.
Installed gscan2pdf, when I scan I get an error "gscan2pdf:
sane_start: Invalid argument"
mick@Mint20Desk:~$ scanimage -L
device `escl:http://192.168.1.94:80' is a ESCL Brother DCP-J772DW
flatbed scanner
mick@Mint20Desk:~$ scanimage -T
Output format is not set, using pnm as a default.

Capability : [image/jpeg]
scanimage: rounded value of br-x from 0 to 0
scanimage: rounded value of br-y from 0 to 0

mick@Mint20Desk:~$ scanimage > image.pnm

So it looks to me like sane_start is the problem, but I don't know
what to do about it.
Can anyone help please?
Hi Mick,
Your version of sane is obselete! Update it!
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sane-project/sane-git
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt install libsane libsane-common sane-utils
Thierry
