I tested this on two different old HP scanners and this happens on both. I I abort an scanning, the application can no longer detect the scanner. Depending on the model Simple Scan can hang or not.
It doesn't happen in a modern HP multifunction. ** Tags added: trusty vivid ** Changed in: simple-scan (Ubuntu) Status: Expired => Confirmed ** Summary changed: - Epson Stylus Office tx300f crashes after aborting one scan and starting another + Simple Scan crashes after aborting one scan and starting another ** Also affects: simple-scan Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: simple-scan (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: simple-scan Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: simple-scan (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to simple-scan in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/852999 Title: Simple Scan crashes after aborting one scan and starting another Status in Simple Scan: Confirmed Status in simple-scan package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: I have an AIO Epson Stylus Office tx300f mutifunctional printer who has scanner function.
