Re: [sane-devel] HP5590 and scanbd button recognition
Thank you both Ilia and Wilhem. I'll be testing out scanbuttond backends in the next day or two. Ilia, if you need assistance testing any changes, I'd be willing to help if need be. I've taken a peek at the backend code, and did see the function you mentioned, so I can do a little tinkering on in. Thanks for the insight.

[sane-devel] HP5590 and scanbd button recognition
Main question: does the HP 5590 support button presses or am I just setting
this up incorrectly?
I'm been successful using scanbd with SANE backends to get scanning working
over my network and locally on the host machine, but I can't seem to get it to
recognize button presses, either running scanbd in foreground or background.
For past testing, it seems that actions defined in scanbd.conf are used to tie
to the backend options? From searching /var/log/syslog, I expected to track
button presses or get some sort of trigger feedback, and I didn't think I
needed an action set up for it.
Any help on this one would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Details Below:
==
I've got an HP ScanJet 5590 connected via USB to my raspberry pi with Raspbian
9 (Stretch).
sane 1.0.14-12 armhf
scanbd 1.4.4-1+b1 armhf
Both provided by the package manager. I've tried to keep it as close to the way
it is set up by default. I've changed dll.conf and net.conf in the /etc/sane.d
folder.
$ cat /etc/sane.d/dll.conf
net
$ cat /etc/sane.d/net.conf
connect_timeout = 5
localhost
I've copied saned.conf from /etc/sane.d and added a soft link to
/usr/share/scanbd/scripts/ as scripts into /etc/scanbd. Adjusted dll.conf and
minor edits on scanbd.conf
$ cat /etc/scanbd/dll.conf

I can access the scanner from the local client and over the network using the
the net: backend.
