Hello everyone! This is my first NixOS post. Decided to make the jump. I got printing working, but scanning is not as lucky.
I have these configs for scanning:
hardware.sane = {
enable = true;
extraBackends = [ pkgs.hplipWithPlugin ];
};
I have this networking enabled (which I needed to find the printer):
services.avahi.enable = true;
services.avahi.nssmdns = true;
When I search for a scanner, I think it’s found:
[josh@stanton:~]$ scanimage -L
device `v4l:/dev/video2' is a Noname Integrated Camera: Integrated I virtual device
device `v4l:/dev/video0' is a Noname Integrated Camera: Integrated C virtual device
device `escl:https://10.0.0.11:443' is a ESCL Home Office Laserjet platen,adf scanner
I’m not sure if the “ESCL” portion is an issue. I can’t remember if that was displayed in Fedora.
But, anytime I try and actually do a scan, that scanner cannot be opened:
Also, I tried the sane-extra-config.nix from the Wiki, but I can’t get it right. I just get this on rebuild:
[root@stanton:/etc/nixos]# nixos-rebuild switch
building Nix...
building the system configuration...
error: store path 'dzjbsdmbn1nix36hzm3nrwg8z6vvmhaq-' has an empty name
(use '--show-trace' to show detailed location information)
So, what’s next? I’m still pretty new to the nix config, but not to Linux in general.
