Have to search a simple-scan (requires gtk) replacement to use my epson printer / scanner.
Scan / print via network.
Suggestions?
-
well, you can try the tools listed here:
https://wiki.manjaro.org/index.php?title=List_of_Qt_Applications
(in the scanning tools section)
if you find other non-gtk based tools, please report back so i can add it to that list.

Nope, and it will bring you gtk3... :(
Dépend de : sane dconf gtk3 colord hicolor-icon-theme
-
xsane and xsane2tess are gtk2-based, but I don't know if it's a replacement.
-
Print should work with cups and gutenprint (200MB, but AUR Epson driver wasn't sucessful...).
At the moment I test the scanner with sane / iscan (iscan-plugin-network, add "net <IP>" to epkowa.conf. Scanner is found and connected by "Image Scan for Linux", but each scan is empty (white page)...
There is no alternative to simple-scan (simle UI, works fine) at the moment. Just install and it works.
By the way...
I tried to copy & paste text from terminal, but it doesn't work. No context menu. ctrl + c or select text not copy it to clipboard.
-
After some more tests (and installed packages...)
xsane, gbscan and simple-scan are working, but I don't like the xsane UI...
No change with iScan (Epson Stylus WorkForce 600)
gbScan isn't that complex with following dependencies. gbscan has no menu entry. I started it with "gbscan" via terminal.
Scan works as root (I think there are some permissions / group membership to test).

ctrl+c is the keyboard shortcut for canceling any active process in your terminal (equivalent to pressing alt+f4 to cancel/close a program in windows and some linux DE).
when you want to copy and paste content/text to/from the terminal, you can do it (sometimes - but not always) by selecting a text and pasting it with the middle mouse button or by using ctrl+shift+c for copying and ctrl+shift+v for pasting.
when you have trouble with copying and pasting between different programs, you can also try to experiment with clipboard managers like qlipper.
please remember that without a clipboard manager copying and pasting only works between OPEN applications (so, copy, then close the application, then paste does NOT work in general).
-
Thanks, I'll test it. Maybe a clipboard manager should do it ;)
At the moment gbscan could be the best (UI not to complex...) replacement for Simple-Scan.
Any sucess with iScan (Epson scanner...)?
-
gbscan-git is recent and based on sane, yes.

Skanlite does what you need, but you need kdebase-rutime and all its deps.

I'm not shure if this is the right but I found a Frontend for Sane.
It's a Java Frontend
http://swingsane.com/ (http://swingsane.com/)
SwingSane is a powerful, cross platform, open source Java client (frontend) for Scanner Access Now Easy (SANE) servers (backends). SwingSane provides access to scanners connected to SANE servers on a network on any platform that supports Java and Swing. It can also be used with your own application to provide some Swing code for accessing SANE scanners.

I knew it would be big with the kde stuff, but wow.

Thank you for this! I just tested it with one page but seems completely usable.

I say iscan would be your best bet for an epson scanner, and it is available in the community repository.
There are also quite a few iscan plugins available in the AUR as well:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?O=0&K=iscan
Did you use one of these AUR packages to install your workforce printer?
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?O=0&K=workforce
Note: For many workforce models the iscan-data package is also required.

Is there a qscanner package available via pacman / AUR?
-
I don't know one.
-
Is there a qscanner package available via pacman / AUR?
Nope. not at the moment.
