Samsung Xpress M2027 WiFi Printer. Official Samsung drivers installed and printing works. Printer connected over WiFi and Google Cloud as well. Scanning doesn't work, Ubuntu does not see the scanner:

sudo sane-find-scanner does not find the printer:

  # 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.

  # No USB scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
  # you have loaded a kernel driver for your USB host controller and have setup
  # the USB system correctly. See man sane-usb for details.

  # Not checking for parallel port scanners.

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

  • To use the scanner, you probably have to connect to the Samsung via a USB cable. – heynnema Nov 15 '19 at 22:36

You need the Samsung drivers from HP (HP bought Samsung printer line, I think). Other alternative is to install the original Samsung drivers or use the SULDR repository: https://www.bchemnet.com/suldr/
