Hello,
I own a Samsung SCX-4728FD multifunction device.
The printer driver worked like a charm, but I am facing some issues with scantopc application.
I installed from the repository which was updated today on my laptop which is running debian 7.0
The function works pretty well when I choose JPEG as the format.
But when I choose PDF format the scan fails to complete and I get the following error in logs:
08-09-13 15:33:21 stdout INFO Waiting for user selection ...

Any ideas would be welcome.
Thank you in advance.
