Title:
Remote network scanner is not being detected in "scanimage -L"
although being published through avahi (karmic)
Status in sane-backends package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
The problem is as following: I got a HP 4400c USB Scanner connected to one
machine (running karmic 64). The scanner is identified (scanimage -L) and used
(xsane) without a problem. I was also able to make it accessible to another
machine (also running karmic 64) by configuring saned on the server and
net.conf on the client, and then solving the udev permissions issue, which
seems to be mentioned in a few other bug reports - not relevant to this bug (I
think).
However, later I tried to make the remote machine detect the remote scanner
automatically, through avahi - without having the saned server's IP address
written manually to net.conf on the client machine. That didn't work. I
verified that saned on the machine with the scanner publishes a proper service
messahe in avahi - and it does. However neither "scanimage -L" nor xsane are
able to detect the remote scanner.
So, my question is - is the sane client configured with avahi support at all?
If not - is that intentional?
The package I report this bug on is sane-utils (because of scanimage).
