I have an HP Envy 6032 all-in-one printer/scanner which I cannot get to scan. Printing works just fine. I first tried using skanlite (from KDE), then the scanimage utility. Source: almost 4 years ago
The printer I'm using has excellent printing-capabilities from within Linux, however it fails completely, when it comes to scanning. I have tried Skanlite and Gnomes Document Scanner, but none of them lists the printer as a scanning-device. Source: almost 4 years ago
I'm trying to download skanlite. According to the site it should be in the discover store, but doesn't seem to be. Is there somewhere else I can get it from? Source: about 4 years ago
