I followed the previous thread with interest ("Network scanner").

I'm running CUPS on an old laptop with a parallel port printer
attached.  The printer is detected and added and is available network
wide.

I also have an old Epson USB flatbed scanner.  It works and is usable
with xsane, gimp, etc. on the localhost.

Is it possible to make this available via CUPS?

No, CUPS is for printing only. Sane has its own network service.

Naturally, you should have sane-backends installed on all machines.

Put your subnet into /etc/sane.d/saned.conf on the server with the scanner.

Then, on each client that you want to use your scanner, put your
scanner's server hostname into /etc/sane.d/net.conf.


Most Excellent!

Scanning remotely as we speak.

Thanks Sam
