Scanners in the PC hall
See also scanning via SUPO or scanning on photocopiers.
In the PC hall, you can scan using the
CANON CanoScan LiDE 100 scanner,
at
nymfe004,
with an optical resolution of up to 2400x4800 dpi.
When using it, please ensure the glass is clean and avoid touching it unnecessarily.
Do not clean the glass yourself; instead, send any requests for cleaning
to techniciZjUWjX1HU@fi_AReJvD4T.muniL7swaAnaZ.cz .
A low-level tool suitable for repeated scanning isscanimage
and for a more user-friendly scanning experience, trysimple-scan orxsane.
GIMP can also utilise the scanner’s services.
If the scanned file is in PNM format,
it can easily be converted using, for example,convert
(ImageMagick) or GIMP.
What to do if you encounter problems
If you are unable to run `xsane `, or if it does not offer any scanners,
try listing the detected scanners: `scanimage -L`. You
should see an output similar to this:
device `genesys:libusb:001:002' is a Canon LiDE 110 flatbed scanner
It may also help to disconnect and reconnect the USB cable.
If the scanning programme unexpectedly closes, check whether
it is still running (perhaps without a visible window) (e.g. using the commandps).
If so, terminate it (using the commandkill -9 $PID) so that it does not block scanning
for anyone else who might wish to use it after you.
If you encounter any problems or have any queries, please email or.
