Ability to use hardware buttons on the printer to send a scan to linux

[aravind3626]

Windows has this Canon IJ Network Selector Tool which gets installed along with the Canon IJ Scan utility in Widnows sends some kind of packet sequence to Canon printers so that computer is visible to the printer and can be selected to send a scan directly to it.

Is is possible for you to integrate such a script for linux to achieve the same?

Brother printers have such a script called brscan to achieve the same.

Note: I have tried scanbd and similiar utilites which uses usb to scan for the button events but I am looking for network implementation for the same.
