Remember, to have udev take into account the rules changes, either unplug the USB cable, wait a few seconds, and plug it back, or issue the following command:.This would give udev rules like for instance: When setting the permissions rules (see the same post) for MP210 or MP520, adjust the corresponding USB PID:.Download latest 0.14.2u version of the libsane-pixma library, (either full package or patch for libsane-pixma 0.13.1 available) and follow the installation instructions given in this previous post.The procedure to install the pixma updated libsane driver is the same as for MP610, only the model PID needs to be correctly set in the udev rules for permissions: Note: this latest driver version does not bring anything new to MP610 (uh. Let's congratulate this Canon's initiative, as a step towards device standardization is a major help for the programmers planet, a single driver working for at least 3 different models. Remember they were released by Canon at the same time. Simply, those 3 all-in-one use exactly the same USB protocol, at least for their scanner part. as MP610.įollowing some exchanges in this blog and the libsane mailing list, the driver updates made for MP610 appeared to be fully compatible with MP520 (message posted in this Blog by Thomas) and MP210 scanners.
They will now be able to use their scanners with Sane frontends like Xsane, Kooka. Good news anyway for Canon Pixma MP210 and MP520 owners. For any Pixma device, install instead the latest Sane library.
