Hello, I’m trying to use my Epson XP-200 printer/scanner with OpenSUSE Tumblweed.

• /etc/sane.d/dll.conf has the “epson2” line uncommented.
• /etc/sane.d/epson2.conf has “net autodiscovery” as its last line
• My user is part of the “lp” group, which seems to be required for finding printers/scanners

If I disable the firewall completely (using YaST2 firewall program), it works – the Skanlite software detects my scanner and connects to it. With the firewall enabled, however, Skanlite says SANE cannot find any scanners. I have tried allowing TCP and UDP ports 8610, 8612 (based on suggestions from https://wiki.debian.org/SaneOverNetwork), and 631 (for CUPS) in the “public” zone, and added the “sane” service to “Allowed” services (didn’t see a “cups” service option), but Skanlite still says SANE cannot find the scanner.

Is there a way for “net autodiscovery” to work without completely disabling my firewall? What ports/services should I allow? It seems the alternative is to manually specify the printer’s IP address in /etc/sane.d/epson2.conf instead of “net autodiscovery”, but I would prefer to not hardcode this.

Thank you in advance for any suggestions!
