The       instructions for configuring sane to find a network scanner are similar       but different from a USB scanner on a network device.              I would do all of that w/ the Pi MX spin as opposed to some other system       on the Pi.              Sane or simple-scan can only recognize the networked Brother for       scanning if it has both the proper driver AND the proper network access.              That is a completely 'separate' process than using such as CUPS and the       cups browser configuration for a printer. printer != scanner              --       Mike Easter              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
