I would like to install my Epson Scanner ( model WP-4535 ) in Ubuntu 16.04 (had it installed in 15.10).
I installed this
sudo apt-get install sane libltdl7
then iScan from the epsonpage (1), which is supposed to be an all-in-one package. I installed it via ./install.sh
which results in having the following iscan parts:
x@y:~$ dpkg -l iscan* | grep ii
ii iscan 2.30.3-1 amd64 simple, easy to use scanner utility for EPSON scanners
ii iscan-data 1.39.0-1 all Image Scan! for Linux data files
ii iscan-network-nt 1.1.1-1 amd64 Image Scan! Network Plugin
iScan still cannot communicate with the scanner, though it can be identified via the following command
scanimage -L
device `epson2:net:192.168.0.7' is a Epson PID 087D flatbed scanner
If I recall it from 15.10 (worked after hours of meh) , epkowa was the solution not epson2, but adding it manually via sudo nano /etc/sane.d/dll.conf doesn't work.
The ubuntuuser page (2), suggests installing ltdl7 packages, which seems to be important, but I have no clue, how to find it (same with the plugin):
iscan_2.X.X-1.ltdl7_i386.deb (32 bit) / iscan_2.X.X-1.ltdl7_amd64.deb (64 bit)
ggf. iscan-plugin-gt-1500_2.1.2-1_i386.deb (allgemein iscan-plugin-SCANNER_VERSION_ARCHITEKTUR.deb) oder z.B. etwas wie esci-interpreter-perfection-v330_0.1.1-2_i386.deb
Also installed xsltproc (3), because of reasons, but didn't change it.
Any suggestions?; help appreciated!
