[Bug 897926] [NEW] More helpful message if scanner is not detected

 

Public bug reported:

When Simple Scan does not detect any supported scanner it shows the
following message:

No scanners detected
Please check your scanner is connected and powered on

It should acknowledge that there is a very realistic chance that the
scanner is connected and powered on. It should include a link to these
(or similar) wiki pages:
