Hello SANE-dev ,

I am troubleshooting a problem with SANE scanimage unable connect to a third party driver (backend). I have exhausted all resources that I know of to solve this problem. Could you take a moment to review my post on the Linux Mint forum to help guide me to a helpful resource?

$ sudo scanimage -d brscan3 -T
Output format is not set, using pnm as a default.
scanimage: open of device brscan3 failed: Invalid argument
