Simple-Scan/Sane not working with Kodak ESP 5250 printer/scanner
My Kodak ESP 5250 printer/scanner does not scan pages using Simple-Sacn or any other page scanner, running the any of the latest Distros (Mint 18.3 etc, etc). The printing of the Kodak ESP 5250 works fine.
The Kodak scanner is recognized and identified by Simple-Scan, as a Kodak 5200 series scanner/printer.
Simple-Scan does one pass of the document and then reports an error communicating with the scanner and stops the scan job.
Simple-Scan works very well under Mint 17.3
