How to proceed so that I can scan ? Canon DR-M160

By Sarah Rodriguez •

I connected my Canon DR-M160 scanner via USB, to my Lubuntu laptop.

I get:

lsusb
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 1083:163e Canon Electronics, Inc.

So it is detected !?
I guess I now have to install sane-canon_dr ?!

How to proceed so that I can scan ?
