How to get a scanner to work with OMV (Network Scanner) The following worked for me. I would suggest you first backup your OMV prior to installing the software just in case something goes wrong. I accept no responsibility if it somehow messes up your OMV server. Use at your own risk. For a Windows machine you will need to download SaneTwain.zip (sanetwain.ozuzo.net/). or xsane (xsane-win32-0.991.zip) for windows (ftp2.sane-project.org/pub/sane/xsane/) I perfer xsane. Once you figure out how to use it, it seems to work better than SaneTwain. The following will need to be installed from the command line (apt-get install ) of the OMV server: sane sane-utils xinetd Edit the following configuration files: /etc/default/saned edit/change RUN=no to RUN=yes Uncomment (if needed) RUN_AS_USER=saned Save changes /etc/sane.d/saned.conf Add LAN address and mask. In my case 192.168.1.0/24 Save changes. Add sane user adduser saned saned reboot OMV This was enough to get the CanoScan to work. But the Epson required just a bit more configuration. Create the following file /etc/xinetd.d/saned Enter the following in the file Source Code 1. service  saned 2. { 3. socket_type  =  stream 4. server  =  /usr/sbin/saned 5. protocol  =  tcp 6. user  =  saned 7. group  =  scanner 8. wait  =  no 9. disable  =  no 10. } Save changes Add lp user (may or may not be required as I don't use the Epson for network printing) adduser saned lp reboot -Now the Epson should work On windows start ScanImage.exe (SaneTwain) (or xsane) in your windows machine or xsane on you Linux machine You will need to configure (SaneTwain or xsane) to get it to see your scanner(s)
