How did you come to that conclusion, again!? :)
It should work *without* 'sudo', man.
Why does not work there, try to figure out.
Bugzilla?

Of course, it is just another frontend for SANE, as 'scanimage' is.

I thought it could be run as a normal user.
Anyway, I've tried with "simple scan" (which I'm pretty sure it does
not require special permission) and don't work as well

Yeah, I repeated what *you* did, and *you* still do not understand.
It would be good if *you* re-read both messages.

Re: Canon LIDE 120 scanner - should I expect this never to work?
Hello, Bad news. I've just installed F21 but unfortunately I'm not able to scan with my Canon (CanonScan N1240U) It is recognized by the system: $dmesg ... [17610.424208] usb 3-3: new full-speed USB device number 4 using xhci_hcd [17610.602439] usb 3-3: New USB device found, idVendor=04a9, idProduct=220e [17610.602450] usb 3-3: New USB device strings: Mfr=64, Product=77, SerialNumber=0 [17610.602456] usb 3-3: Product: CanoScan [17610.602460] usb 3-3: Manufacturer: Canon SANE recognizes it: $ sudo sane-find-scanner found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9 [Canon], product=0x220e [CanoScan]) at libusb:003:004 but cannot scan: $ scanimage -T scanimage: no SANE devices found $ scanimage -L No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different, check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages). On the SANE web page, it seems that this scanner is supported via the plustek backend since version 0.52 (the version shipped with F21 is 1.0.24) http://www.sane-project.org/sane-mfgs.html#Z-CANON Cheers, -- Marco On Sat, Dec 13, 2014 at 2:19 AM, Fred Smith wrote: > On Fri, Dec 12, 2014 at 05:21:18PM -0500, Fred Smith wrote: >> On Fri, Dec 12, 2014 at 11:15:05PM +0100, Marco Guazzone wrote: >> > Hi, >> > >> > I've experienced similar issues with an old CanonScan. >> > It worked until Fedora 19, but not in Fedora 20. >> > I've tried with: >> > simple-scan >> > xsane >> > gimp + sane plugin >> > command line: scanimage -d plustek ... >> > The last one returned an I/O error.

I figured it wasn't good, because on Centos 7 on that same computerr I got a white page doing that, as I should. but I said what the heck and put in a piece of paper with a Dilbert cartoon on it, and voila, it scanned!

Re: Canon LIDE 120 scanner - should I expect this never to work?
Hi, I've experienced similar issues with an old CanonScan. It worked until Fedora 19, but not in Fedora 20. I've tried with: simple-scan xsane gimp + sane plugin command line: scanimage -d plustek ... The last one returned an I/O error. Just to make sure it's not a scanner problem, I've asked a collegue of mine (which runs a fedora 19) to test it and it worked. I hope that Fedora 21 (that I'm going to install in the next few days) can bring it back to life.

Re: Canon LIDE 120 scanner - should I expect this never to work?
Hi Joe Feely, There is only one single professional app is available for linux for any kind of scanning work. It's called Vuescan. If you buy that, you gonna never regret it. I know that is not foss software but it's a solution for such Lide and other type "unusable" scanners. Zoltan 2014-12-12 20:56 GMT+01:00 Joe Feely : > Just got a Canon LIDE 120 scanner.

Canon LIDE 120 scanner - should I expect this never to work?
Just got a Canon LIDE 120 scanner. Neither Simple scan nor xsane detect it, though lsusb sees that it's connected. I bit of Googling makes me wonder if I need to exchange it. Is there a way to get it to work? I'm using fc20 + MATE.
