I took the risk with the epson 4990 and ended up with the job to hack the backend, mostly because the firmware in the scanner made som funny things and have some funny features too. I hacked the epson driver, but this driver did not do the extended commands, but before I got the epson backed update to the extended commands the epson2 driver from Alessandro came up, and it did the job for me, except for the funny buggy software of the epson 4990 scanner, which I have hacked today (it is in the driver now). Sow if your scanner not have funny firmware it proberly runs on epson2 (if it use the ESC/I, but I think that both v700 and v750 use the ESC/I commands, but don't blame me if I'm not right) commands, but . We can too ask epson for the programmers manual, I did that with the 4990 and got them without problems. I don't know how much you can do, can you compile a packet your self ? - do you programe/understand some c ?
