```bash
sudo dnf install sane-backends sane-frontends xsane

The xsane gui looks a little intimidating but doing a simple scan is straightforward. When you launch xsane a window with a button exists where you can ++"Acquire a preview"++. This will take a preview image of a scan. Once read to scan click the button 'Start' in the main menu.
