Hi,

I am using a AMD64 / Kubuntu 8.04 computer. I tried to connect it to a Samsung clx-2160 laser printer/scanner. Printer work without any problems. Scanner is a totally different story. Sane and Kooka did not see any scanner. When I tried to install the drivers that is given in the web page of Samsung this tien I cannot run both softwares. With Sane I get a small window telling that it is looking for a scanner for few seconds and then disappears. with Kooka I get:

When I ask sane to search for a scanner I get:

oyo@oyo-kubuntu:~$ sane-find-scanner

  # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
  # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
  # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.

  # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
  # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04e8, product=0x3425) at libusb:004:002
  # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by
  # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.

  # Not checking for parallel port scanners.

  # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports
  # can't be detected by this program.

  # You may want to run this program as root to find all devices. Once you
  # found the scanner devices, be sure to adjust access permissions as
  # necessary.

What am I suppose to do to correct these errors and be able to scan?

Many thanks
