            Bug ID: 329344
           Summary: No scanner setup in settings
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: systemsettings
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: orders at batpack.com

There does not appear to be any system settings option to manually configure,
find, or add scanners.
Drivers are installed but no "scanner" settings avaiable in system settings and
unable to setup or use two different scanners connected to system.
Skanlite appears to be dreadfully lacking in devices listed therefore does not
find them.


Reproducible: Always




Attempting to install and use scanner sections of two Multi Function Printers-
Canon "imageclass" MF5950DW and Epson "artisan" 730.
Both of these printers and drivers are installed, and working, but system fails
to find or recognise the scanner sections of these two devices. . .

And skanlite says: "Check your systems scanner setup" but there is NONE!  

Using Kubuntu 13.10 on a Dell Inspiron 660.
And may have to search for, and purchase, a third scanner just to scan
documents on this OS. . . 

And if there are any suggestions for really good printers and scanners that are
Linux friendly, with drivers and interfaces, that are not totally limited to
'barebones" functions; any suggestions would be appreciated. 

Kindest regards;
Scorch.
