I installed the driver from brothers website but I get the following error when I try to configure it.

It sees it connected

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04f9 [Brother], product=0x0468 [DS-640]) at libusb:002:006

i am having a headache in bringing this damn scanner to work in solus, with a little tinkering and working through the arch wiki i kinda got it to work, its the right Scanner, permission problems fixed, but for unknown reasons my scans only work for part of the scan after that its just white space

So when i scan with simple-scan it only scans a third of the paper, with skanlite it works to 2/3 of the paper, paperwork for example wont work with the scanner. Tried different "modes" of the scanner, which i didnt know it had (like duplex scan Oo?), no luck there, on the brother support page it says that it works with brscan4 and brscan5 so i dont think its a problem with the package.

I am at a loss here, i am not the person to write on forums for help, but my wife needs it for her work and i dont want to switch to another distro just because this stupid Scanner wont work, also my wife is satisfied with solus more than with manjaro and popos and therefore i am satisfied so why should i change that ?, as the saying goes happy wife happy life.

If nothing helps i maybe will cave in and buy an all in one printer/scanner setup from hp, i know that those things work out of the box with most distros, but why buy new things when you have perfectly fine working hardware at home.

lotsa brother scanner threads: many of them Solved. Just type brother scanner in the search above.

See which brother thread mirrors your circumstances.

Although I have to say you have weird circumstances. Most are inoperable but you have a scanner that kinda works. Never seen that!

also install sane-backends and try gscan2pdf instead of simple scan.

what did the brother website say? they have a deb or targz scanner package for you?

you seem "2/3" of the way there! try some more stuff. brothers usually work on solus but ALL scanners are headaches..

edit: at devtracker above find the notorious T83 brother link. If all else fails give the solus team your brother deb link and see if they can make you a custom package.

ALSO: find the user manual at brother. Usually they call a single model, on the manual cover, 5 different (DS-850 etc) versions. so scanner drivers could be hiding in plain sight

I already searched the forum for brother scanner and most of them are either network setup related or bringing the scanner at all to work, which does not fit my case, as my scanner is working but not how it should be ?.

On the Brother website they have a rpm and deb package for driver installation, i never used them on ubuntu/popos as there it worked out of the box and also scanned the whole page (why shouldnt it right ...).

Solus devs live for this?...hey, they fixed me up with a custom package for my brother after I gave them a link to the deb.

Too bad about gscan2pdf.

If you look a the brother manual cover I guarantee you will see DS-640, DS-645F, DS-7010 etc etc. I think for Euro and global printers model is the same but the mumbers change? 'Hiding in plain sight' means maybe solus scanner packages may exist for those other numbers...

...but if your printing 2/3 of a page, then there is something in that deb you need. Whether its something you can copy into a solus folder or have team do it for you imho you don't have what you need installed on your system.

Too much of a laymen to intepret all that, but I have seen that permission thing lately. Some printer threads solved recently by changing permssions...so maybe its that. I don't have a command off the top of my head. Would be sudo chmod yadda yadda..

Anyone reading, can you interpret that first permissions log? Could it be that easy?

You will be successful be patient!

Hi,

I did find your post because I was looking for a solution for my Brother DS-640.

My configuration is this one:

PC Laptop EliteBook

PRETTY_NAME="Linux Mint 21.2"

Gsan2pdf = 2.12.6 from package brscan5-1.3.1-0.amd64.deb

the first time I did run gsan2pdf the scanner did not show up. I unplug/replug it, I did shut gscan2pdf and restart it, I did also change the USB port... nothing worked..

by reading your post (thanks to you) I did not fully understand everything but I noticed a software I did know called scanimage.. I did try it and this one is working well without changing anything, so I did use it.

now I am restarting now gscan2pdf and... now the scanner is showing up in the devices list..

I don't know why.

The only notable thing that might have an impact for me is that I tried all other brother scanner driver packages before this one. I uninstalled them so normally this shouldn't have any consequence.

The driver package indicates the user should be in the 'scanner' group so I added myself in this group but cannot still access the device, what is strange is that the udev rule from the driver is

and afterwards my scanner was detected, the udev rule was working and everything is fine !

So I'm not sure exactly what was the issue I will have to retry after a reboot if the problem persists. For other that have the same problem I recommend the udev rules reload commands above, I didn't do anything else to have it working ( which makes no sense to me since I tried anyway to reboot with the new rules so udev should have picked them, even if inotify was not working).

I'll mark this as solved since I don't need help anymore but I'm not satisfied with the solution and might comment later.
