I have a HP deskjet 3050 which is a printer/scanner. The printer was added to my network using a WPS pin through my router. The printer works fine, it is detected on my network and prints in Ubuntu12.04. However when I try to scan with Simple Scan (for example) I get a message "No scanner detected".
Could someone tell me if there's scanner utility that can detect a scanner over a network.
I have the drivers installed for the printer scanner, and I can print to the printer side of it,
I just can't figure out how access the scanner side
any help is appreciated

Issue:
I've a all-in-one printer (Lexmark x6675) directly connect it to my LAN network (with its corresponding ip).
So having recently set up my server (including some disk space and ushare, and an additional laserjet printer) I was wondering if anyone had any experience of putting a multifunction printer into an ubuntu server and adding it locally (to the server) then to the networked computers....I know this printer works perfectly (the scan too!) when plugged directly into a machine's USB
I have just bought a shiny new Canon MG6250 multifunction printer/scanner and connected it via LAN. Installing the printing side of things was a breeze, however, I cannot work out how to set up scanning.
I installed the MG6200 series ScanGear MP driver from Canon's site but when I open GIMP or Simple Scan, they say there is no scanner detected.
I have an HP MFP connected by USB to a computer within my home network, this has Hardy Heron installed and the machine is only used as a printer, scanner server.
Since upgrading my laptop to 12.04 my network printer doesn't work, I get a missing filter error.
Same printer, same computer but using 10.10 liveCD all works fine.
Anyone any ideas as to why a later version does not work.

The printer works, but not the scanner.
My Dad's just switched to Ubuntu on his main computer. The printer is active on network and is connected to his main computer by USB. None of the computer will recognize it, whether it be on the network or from USB.
All the computers run Ubuntu: 12.04 32 Bit.
I have several computers connected to a single network printer. I want to add a second profile for the network printer so that I can give it different printing properties (landscape vs portrait).
We are using Windows XP. The network printer has an address like:
\\SERVERCOMPUTER\Dell Laser Printer M! Dell Laser Printer M5200
How can I add a second printer profile or a network printer?
Hi there,

I just installed the cups-drivers so printing already works fine.
Unfortunetely I do not have any clue how get the integrated scanner working using the wifi connection?
