Canon TS8160 printer works but scanner not












0















I'm new to Linux in general and have installed Ubuntu 18.04. I managed to configure a Canon TS8160 printer which is working fine but no matter what I do the scanner is not found by Simple Scan or Xsane. I have installed the drivers provided by Canon. Any help would be appreciated.



ps sane finds the scanenr but scanimage -L says that no scanners were identified:



emilio@MyToy:~$ sudo 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=0x04a9 [Canon], product=0x1821 [TS8100 series]) at libusb:001:006
# 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.
emilio@MyToy:~$ scanimage -L



No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
