Hi Mark,

Canon, with a lot of Linux drivers for their printers and scanners, normally
has a link on their website to the OpenSource drivers, try the Canon Website
for your product and you may find the link you need.

Did a google search and looking at the Canon Europe page, "Available
Drivers (0)" which matches other material, all talking about sane and
scanimage and versions thereof for Linux and BSD related systems.

It looks like 1.0.27 is still in testing, and I am not looking to go
there, at least at this time. In the meantime, I am photographing
essential documents with a good Pentax digital camera, then cropping
and altering the white and shadow balance. I have an old Nokia classic
phone, but jiggle too much when trying to photograph with that. I also
have a Huawei android phone with no sim, and a Telstra cheap Android
tablet, again no sim. Getting a photo off the Huawei is "difficult",
and the cheap Telstra tablet is very difficult to get to respond to
the screen presses, getting it to take the photo can be a frustrating
hour, and still no image. I know why it has such a poor reputation.

Regards,

Mark Trickett

Sorry Mark,


There is more, we have steak knives.

Use AirDroid to transfer data from the HuaWei to your Linux Box, app on the phone (D/L the app over wi-fi) and web Interface on the Linux box. A QR code on the Linux Box is scanned by the AirDroid app on the phone and connects the two devices, very slick.
