This is my first post, so please go easy. I have been using Linux Mint for the last few months, and I am pleasantly surprised with it, and some of the issues I was able to overcome with forum information, etc. I have a Dell C1765nfw all-in-one printer that i am trying to get working. The printing features work; the scanning does not. I have worked through different solutions using sane and xsane, but this printer is not listed. Is there a suggested methodology for working to try to get a scanner working that is not listed, or are there generic drivers that can be used?
