Hi everyone!
Could somebody give me correct /opt/etc/xinetd.d/saned file for samsung 4200 ?
Right now I have this one

(snip....)

But it's incorrect, because of errors

Nov 30 10:32:42 xinetd[296]: Bad socket type: stream^M [file=/opt/etc/xinetd.d/saned] [line=4]

I understand, that i have incorrect values, but i don't have true parameters
Advise me somebody!!

To quote a post from earlier in this thread:

It is obvious that you have DOS CR/LF problem. Erase config and type if from scratch using vi.

All the ^M characters you see in the log are linefeed characters. They are probably in the config file because you edited it on a windows/dos (mac?) machine.
Make sure there are no more line feed characters in the file, for instance by starting over using vi.

hi all!
I have a WL500gP with Oleg's firmware v.1.9.2.7-10
Canon i-SENSYS MF4010 is connected to the router. Printing is no problem,but scanning...
On the sane-project.org it is said that the device may be supported but is untested.
sane-find-scanner says that it's found USB scanner:

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9 [Canon Inc.], product=0x26b4 [MF4010]) at libusb:003:002 

but scanimage -L says that

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). 

Has anybody managed to scan with this device using SANE?
Could anybody please say if there is some working backend for this device?

Thanks.

Further investigations

pixma backend is of 0.14.3 version:

$ SANE_DEBUG_PIXMA=21 scanimage -L
[sanei_debug] Setting debug level of dll to 0.
[sanei_debug] Setting debug level of pixma to 21.
[pixma] pixma version 0.14.3
[pixma] pixma_find_scanners() found 0 devices 

I have installed sane-backends_1.0.19+cvs20080315-3_mipsel.ipk

But there is pixma v.0.15 in CVS already! I've googled in linux.debian.bugs.dist, that

"several new ImageCLASS
MFPs are now supported by the pixma backend in CVS (v. 0.15.0).
Plus, the new pixma backend also supports BJNP network scanning for
several PIXMA MFPs, which would probably be welcomed by PIXMA
owners."

I'm not very familiar with compiling... Could somebody do this good job and recompile sane-backends 1.0.19 including latest CVS?
It would be greatly appreciated by many users of new Canon devices...

Hello all,

I'd like to ask anyone for help. I have an Epson DX4400 printer/scanner combo. I did everythink as described in the walkthrough, but I'm getting some strange error messages:

Result of sane-find-scanner

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [Language Error], product=0x083f [Language Error]) at libusb:001:002

scanimage -L says nothing found.

Any ideas?

EDIT: While I was googling around a bit, I found that I'm most likely missing the epkowa backend... Is there a chance of somebody compiling it for Oleg's firmware for WL500g Premium?

Hi,

I've got the following problem.

I set up the sane-server on my WL500gP. Now I try to connect a Canon MP830 to the server.

scanimage -L

[admin@ASUS_WL500GP root]$ scanimage -L
device `pixma:04A91713' is a CANON Canon PIXMA MP830 multi-function peripheral

and

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9 [Canon], product=0x1713 [MP830]) at libusb:003:005

look good in my opinion.

The sane-service is also started:

Service configuration: saned
        id = saned
        flags = IPv4
        socket_type = stream
        Protocol (name,number) = (tcp,6)
        port = 6566
        wait = no
        user = 0
        group = 0
        Groups = no
        PER_SOURCE = -1
        Bind = All addresses.
        Server = /opt/sbin/saned
        Server argv = saned
        Only from:  localhost(HOST) 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0(NET)172.16.0.0 255.240.0.0(NET) 192.168.0.0/255                                                      .255.0.0(NET)
        No access: No blocked sites
        Logging to syslog. Facility = authpriv, level = info
        Log_on_success flags = HOST PID
        Log_on_failure flags = HOST

09/3/15@16:40:51: DEBUG: 1206 {cnf_start_services} Started service: saned

Now if I try to scan an image out of XSane, I get the error-message

ERROR DURING READ: Error during device I/O

Any idea what could be the reason for that?

Thanks
Oliver

What's wrong?

Hi everybody,

for all of you, who have problems by setting up a sane scanne-server on your Asus-Router:
I compiled the actual stable version of the sane-server on my router and it works fine. The ipkg-package is not up to date, many scanners are not supported and you also need a newer version of router-firmware.
I wrote a little HowTo on how to setup the scanner-server with the XSane Frontend in the german Forum. If there are many users interested in a english translation, I can translat it an post it in the Tutorials section.
If you are able to read it in german language look here.

Edit: Here is the english translation of the Sane-Server How-To

Oliver

Hi all,
While getting scanner to work, I can't execute xinetd binary file from USB flash:

/opt/etc/init.d/S10xinetd: line 14: /opt/sbin/xinetd: not found
$ /opt/sbin/xinetd -d
-sh: /opt/sbin/xinetd: not found
$ ls -l /opt/sbin/xinetd
-rwxr-xr-x    1 admin    root       195092 Jul 11  2008 /opt/sbin/xinetd

Package inetd is not found.
I tried both VFAT and ext3 journaling system (by mke2fs -j).

[carterb]

Hi,

tell us some more about your issue.

What system are you using, wich firmware?
How did you install the sane-scanner-server? Self-compiled or ipkg?
Did you try it after my tutorial?
If yes, please ask in the according thread, this thread is not well supported.

Bye
Oliver

[chem-vgasu]

Hi,
I'm using Oleg firmware 1.9.2.7 on DLink DIR-320. sane-backends and xinetd are installed by ipkg.
I'll try your tutorial later (I've seen it before), but the strange is I can't execute any executable file from my USB flash even when it is ext3 formatted. Of course, it's a bit off-topic here.
Maybe I'll try another USB flash disk.

[carterb]

Hi,

is your Disk mounted correctly?
Any other software working with xinetd.

Please post the output of:

df

and:

free

and move to folder /opt/

cd /opt

and do a

ls -all

Please post all the outputs. I'm not that familiar with your hardware.
Didi you setup your Router after wengis tutorial?

Of course, it's a bit off-topic here

No problem, the whole thread is out of date

I'm trying to follow alex_g's suggestions from 23-08-2005 -

6) add the following line to /etc/services:
saned 6566/tcp # SANE network scanner daemon

but I can't seem to edit my /etc/services file. It seems the filesystem is read-only, and I can't figure out how to make it rw. I'm running dd-wrt on an ASUS WL-520GU.

root@asus_router:/# mount
rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)
/dev/root on / type squashfs (ro)
none on /dev type devfs (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
ramfs on /tmp type ramfs (rw)
/dev/mtdblock/4 on /jffs type jffs2 (rw)
/dev/discs/disc0/part1 on /opt type ext3 (rw)

I've tried lots of variations of the "mount" command to change it to rw, including

mount -no rw /

and other similar iterations. Every time I go back and check the status, the root fs is still (ro). Does anyone know how to change this?
