I am running Ubuntu 14.04 and Windows 7 virtually. I know that the Canon 120 LiDE cannot run on Ubuntu, but would I be able to run it through Windows 7 virtually?

          Now the canon LiDE 120 runs on Ubuntu 14.04 and tested in 16.04 as well, for this you have to do the following:



          To add the SANE PPA so that you have the latest version of SANE (backport), open your terminal and type



          $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rolfbensch/sane-git


          then run



          $ sudo apt update


          then (assuming the user has the sane and all sane libraries installed) do a full-upgrade by



          $ sudo apt full-upgrade


          If you do not have sane and all its libraries installed then install it by executing the following.



          $ sudo apt -y install sane libsane libsane-common sane-utils libsane-extras


          Now your scanner should work with any frontends like simple-scan or gscan2pdf.



          or you can compile sane-backend from the latest source, for that you can follow https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompileSaneFromSource.
          and it will help you some more https://help.ubuntu.com/community/sane

          • Did this version of SANE reach the official repositories? It would be useful to update sane-project.org/sane-mfgs.html#Z-CANON which says LiDE 120 is unsupported. It is listed as supported in the git version though: sane-project.org/lists/sane-mfgs-cvs.html

          You try to edit a file /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules:



          Open a terminal,


          Press Ctrl+Alt+T



          Run it:



          sudo nano /lib/udev/rules.d/40-libsane.rules


          In te open file add the following 2 lines:



          # Canon CanoScan Lide 120
          ATTRSidVendor=="04a9", ATTRSidProduct=="190e", ENVlibsane_matched="yes"


          Ctrl + O, save file. Ctrl + X, close nano.



          Close the terminal,



          Reboot.



          And run:



          sudo sane-find-scanner -v -v

            # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by
            # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.



            # Not checking for parallel port scanners.



            # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports
            # can't be detected by this program.

            -L: Befehl nicht gefunden.
            zorin@zorin-E2050-2391:~$ scanimage -L



            No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
            check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
            sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
            which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
