Re: [libreoffice-users] Scan documents?

When I had my Epson Artisan 810, I could not get the scanner part to 
work.  Printer driver worked fine, but not the scanner.  When Ubuntu 
12.04LTS came out, there was an update to Xsane that "fixed the issue" 
since before upgrading to 12.04 the Xsane [or other scanner packages] 
did not work.  I have been using a Canon print/scan/copy since Jan 9th 
2013, so I did not need to deal with the Epson, except for the FAX 
option.  I bought a Canon print/scan/copy/fax printer  Feb 18th 2014 
after the scanner part of the Epson died.

SO I have not had to deal with any Epson Linux driver sites for a few years.
