[Bug 575191] Re: simple-scan doesn't scan from HP M1522nf (MFP), while xsane works

 

This seems to be related to the drivers/backends. These change with
Ubuntu releases independant of simple-scan, and have a tendency to be
rather fragile. Can someone confirm that there is a problem with the
following setup:

- hp scanner (please scpecify exactly)
- Ubuntu 12.04 precise (beta/stable)
- simple-scan, xsane, hplip installed
- running simple-scan, then xsane, then simple-scan again

Thanks in advance!

Title:
  simple-scan doesn't scan from HP M1522nf (MFP), while xsane works

Status in Simple Scan:
  Incomplete
Status in “simple-scan” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: simple-scan

  1) lsb_release -rd
  Description:    Ubuntu 9.10
  Release:        9.10

  2) apt-cache policy simple-scan
  simple-scan:
    Installiert: 1.0.3-0ubuntu1
    Kandidat: 1.0.3-0ubuntu1

  3) scan a page from hpaio:/usb/HP_LaserJet_M1522nf_MFP...

  4) did not scan, in more detail:
  It looks like simple-scan does not wait long enough for the scanner: just when it sounds like calibration has finished and the scanner will start to send the data the program seems to cancel the scan. At least that's what the following snippet from 'simple-scan -d' -output suggests:
  ---8<--------------------------------
  ** (simple-scan:5083): DEBUG: sane_control_option (13, SANE_ACTION_SET_VALUE, 296,925995) -> (SANE_STATUS_GOOD, 296,925995)
  ** (simple-scan:5083): DEBUG: sane_start (page=0, pass=0) -> SANE_STATUS_GOOD

  ** (simple-scan:5083): WARNING **: Unable to read frame from device: Operation was cancelled
  ---8<--------------------------------
  [The full output is in the attached file (serial number removed).]

  A very few times some data was really transferred and I could see the
  first bit of the scan displayed, but then it would suddenly stop with
  the same error-message.

  Xsane worked without any problems, so the scanner+driver are okay.

  I had the same bug on Lucid (10.04) with the included simple-scan
  version 1.0.2.

  If you need any further information, please let me know.
