Public bug reported: The Canon N640P *does* work in Ubuntu - not with graphical frontends, but with scanimage(1). Please make sure you read this article before commenting: http://azabani.com/articles/scanner
During a greyscale scan, only the green light is switched on. During a colour scan, all three (red, green, blue) lights should be switched on. I've enabled the "canon_pp" driver, allowing scanimage(1) to detect the scanner. However, the driver has a bug where only the red and blue lights, not the green one, is switched on during a colour scan. Now all colour scans are heavily magenta-tinted. I have tested this with an N640P and an N640Pex - both of which show this problem, and both of which don't have this problem in Windows XP (probably ruling out a hardware issue). ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Colour scans using Canon N640P are magenta tinted https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/604453 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
