Without having changed anything, it now works just fine again...francois wrote:I get the files with:

Maybe it was some kind of server local / foreign IP issue? *head scratching, pondering*
Sorry, I was so busy with other stuff that I not managed to read any of my emails for weeks...francois wrote:Hello rava, one or two days ago I have sent you a private message thru email offering you to send the modules thru email attachment. Did you receive it?
If not just send me a private message, I will send you the modules.
Yes, I was that occupied and busy...
Anyhow, I just downloaded all 3 modules and saved them as *_V2, to once again check the md5sums, and look what happened:

Re: [HOW TO] Scanning with porteus
Sadly, no, I was to busy with RL, so I scanned using Witless XP instead, but I still want to have it running with Port, now with Port 3.1 x86-64 (of course, XFCe version, also I think about trying LXQT as well, sounds interesting)francois wrote:Finally Rava, did you achieved to get your scanner to work with these files?

Re: [HOW TO] Scanning with porteus
With my Epson L355 worked with RPM packages. It's very simple!
Find the Driver here: http://download.ebz.epson.net/dsc/searc ... FromResult
Or go straight to the download page: http://support.epson.net/linux/en/iscan ... sion=1.0.1
1-download and extract iscan-bundle-*. *. *. * x * .rpm.tar.gz
2-in the folder iscan-bundle-*. *. *. * x *.rpm three subfolders containing an RPM package these should be converted.
3-for resolving dependencies use the sane-backends of Fedora, download and convert it as well:
For 32 bits: http://fedora.c3sl.ufpr.br/linux/releas ... 4.i686.rpm
For 64 bits: http://fedora.c3sl.ufpr.br/linux/releas ... x86_64.rpm

Re: [HOW TO] Scanning with porteus
If you ever get to register the wrong ip address for the brother printer scanner function, you will get an error message if you try to assign the right one:
Here the MFC-7860DW printer was already assigned to 192.168.0.10, and would not accept 192.168.0.107:
All you have to do is to remove /opt/brother/scanner/brscan4/brsanenetdevice4.cfg and then reassign the wright printer ip address to the printer scanner.
Added in the first post.
Code: Select all
root@porteus:~# brsaneconfig4 -a name=scanner model=MFC-7860DW ip=192.168.0.107
"scanner" is already registered.
Code: Select all
root@porteus:~# brsaneconfig4 -q | grep scanner
0 scanner "MFC-7860DW" I:192.168.0.107

[HOW TO] Scanning with porteus
This thread is still good to install scanner for brother printers network mode.
