After many hours of troubleshooting/googling, looking for some help:

I'm switching from Ubuntu to Debian Jessie, and am having problems
scanning via Sane. Oddly, I had no trouble with scanning on
Ubuntu/Xubuntu (14.04) with the same computer and same
scanner/printer. Printing is fine on both OS's.. It's just scanning
that won't work on Debian.

When I attempt a scan, I can hear the scanner moving, but then an error
appears before the image shows up on the computer.

I have tried both XSane (version: 0.998) and Simple Scan (3.14.0).

Here are the errors: XSane: Error during read: Error during device I/O.
Simple Scan: "Failed to scan Error communicating with scanner"

It makes no difference whether I run XSane/SimpleScan as "user" or
"root"; The same error occurs in both cases.

I also tried using Sane directly from command line, and this is
what I get:

#root@debianos:/home/me# sane-find-scanner found USB scanner
(vendor=0x040a [Eastman Kodak Company], product=0x4066 [KODAK ESP Office
2170 Series]) at libusb:001:008

#root@debianos:/home/me# scanimage -L device `v4l:/dev/video0' is a
Noname HD WebCam virtual device device `kodakaio:libusb:001:008' is a
Kodak KODAK ESP Office 2170 Series flatbed scanner

#root@debianos:/home/me# scanimage -d kodakaio --format pnm >
outfile.pnm scanimage: sane_read: Error during device I/O

On Debian Jessie I saw these files: /etc/sane.d/kodak.conf
/etc/sane.d/kodakaio.conf So to experiment, I tried replacing them with
the ones from my working Ubuntu. But that didn't help. And "diff" showed
almost no difference anyway.

Again, I have no trouble scanning using Ubuntu on the same
computer/scanner combo, so I'm thinking it should be possible on Debian.


Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
