Description of problem: "Microtek ScanMaker 3840 flatbed scanne" detected by sane-find-scanner but not identified by "scanimage -L" Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): sane-backends-1.0.22-10.fc17.i686 kernel-3.3.7-3.fc17.i686 How reproducible: every time Actual results: $ sane-find-scanner # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer. # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter. found USB scanner (vendor=0x067b, product=0x2303) at libusb:003:002 found USB scanner (vendor=0x05da, product=0x30d4 [USB Scanner]) at libusb:003:004 # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage. # Not checking for parallel port scanners. # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports # can't be detected by this program. # You may want to run this program as root to find all devices. Once you # found the scanner devices, be sure to adjust access permissions as # necessary. $ scanimage -L 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). Expected results: scanimage output should be the same as in Fedora 16: $ scanimage -L device `sm3840:libusb:003:003' is a Microtek ScanMaker 3840 flatbed scanner Additional info: No such problem in Fedora 16 with the same kernel and sane-backends sane-backends-1.0.22-10.fc16, kernel-3.3.7-3.fc16.i686

Your Fedora 17 installation is missing the sane-backends-drivers-scanners package, please install it.
Thanks, scanner works after installing sane-backends-drivers-scanners.
