I want to print and scan papers from a pinephone pro. I know they are linux machines, but can they handel this? I have epson and brother gear.

I don't want to connect through the network and Internet, but through usb or wifi direct.

Thanks.

Yes it works just like any other Linux computer. I use it with Epson ET-something and just works tm.

Thanks. So there is gui software to scan from a scanner. What os and software do you suggest?

scanning the current camera stuff works but the missing libs to convert to an image file currently crash the camera app, scour the forum and I recall there was a post for hand-loading the libs.

Thanks.  Handy to know the camera fails.  I'm trying to hook up a usb printer scanner when need be without going through a second system?
if the printer scanner is in the mainline kernel you should be golden ie if it already works in Debian...
