[SOLVED] SCX-3400 scanner no longer working in Mint 19.1

[no no]

Unfortunately since Linux mint 19.1 , Samsung SCX-3400 scanner is no longer working in 19.10.

The Samsung driver is correctly installed according to this advice:

you need to download and install a driver.

Extract uld_V1.00.39_01.17.tar.gz and open Terminal into uld folder and run
CODE: SELECT ALL
sudo ./install.sh

I am stuck again, any advice?

Give the output of

Code: Select all

ls -l /usr/lib/sane

[no no]

here it is:

nowpie@nowpie-All-Series:~$ ls -l /usr/lib/sane
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 fév 15 16:52 libsane-smfp.so -> /usr/lib/sane/libsane-smfp.so.1

/usr/lib/sane/libsane-smfp.so.1 and the other two files are in the wrong places. Copy them to /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sane.
