Hi,

I am troubleshooting a problem with SANE scanimage unable connect to a third party driver (backend). I have exhausted all resources that I know of to solve this problem. Could you take a moment to review my post on the Linux Mint forum to help guide me to a helpful resource?



$ sudo scanimage -d brscan3 -T
Output format is not set, using pnm as a default.
scanimage: open of device brscan3 failed: Invalid argument

Does your scanner show up in the output of `scanimage -L`?

If not, it could be that scanimage is not loading the driver, perhaps because it cannot find the library.

Running `strace scanimage -L 2>&1 |grep ".so"` should give you some output that shows which shared libraries it tries to load and where it tries to load them from.




Best wishes,
@ndy
