In fact if it worked on 17.03 there should be no problem with making it work on 17.06 as we use the same ubuntu base system here. The only big change was the kernel (besides the usual plasma upgrades)
So maybe try installing the older kernel and see if it works with this.
Hi leszek,
I have installed Maui 17.06 complete new. So all about SANE is new installed and back to what Maui 17.06 brings with. My scanner is not recognized by SANE. As you said, with Maui 17.06 comes SANE 1.0.25+git... (please have a look at the attached picture "Scanner installed version"). The scanner list for SANE version 1.0.27 (http://www.sane-project.org/sane-mfgs.html#Z-CANON) shows my scanner CANON Pixma MG 5700 series listed as completed (please have a look at the attached picture "Scanner List"). With the new version 1.0.27 my scanner should be recognized and work.
How do I install the new version of SANE? Do I have to use the website of Rolf Bensch? If yes, which repository do I have to add [ a) ppa:rolfbensch/sane-release or b) ppa:rolfbensch/sane-git ]? Or is there another way?
Kind regards,
Sigurd
