No answer from me. Just saying: My situation is similar, but YMMV. I was using a scanner from MS Windows since almost 20 years. I am on debian since about 5 years, but never got the scanner to work. The workaround - for me - is to keep a Windows VM with outdated Win7, scanner software and configuration, which i use to scan, whereas i can print to the scanner/printer directly from debian. Certainly a bit weird, especially the "virtual USB configuration" that is supported inside my router for this to work, but it does since a long time and needed adjustments only once in a blue moon. So i am keeping this very old (scanner-) hardware functional, which has a laser printer (no inkjet) as long as i still have toner cartridges (no longer available from producer). good luck with your endeavor.
