[Bug 550856] Re: page size setting is broken, use it as default crop or fix it by other means

 

Changing page size is still broken with Software Center release version simple-scan 3.12.1-0ubuntu1 and Ubuntu 14.04.
When legal size is selected and legal paper is fed through the ADF of a Canon ImageClass MF4150 the entire page is not scanned.  The scan size is the same as if letter size was selected.

Bug description:
  For some SANE drivers simple scan always scans the largest scan area
  ignoring the "Page Size" setting in the preferences.

  To reproduce:
  1. Open Simple Scan
  2. Set page size in Document > Prefrences > Page Size, e.g. to "4x6"
  3. Scan a document
  Expected result:
  The document is scanned at the requested size
  Observed result:
  The document is scanned at the maximum size

  Regression potential:
  Low. The fix was to set the page size using an alternative method for drivers that do not support the page-width, page-height options. There is a small chance that these settings might change behaviour / expose bugs on drivers that were previously working.
