I have not come across this before. I used my Epson 1650 with iscan under 8.2, and use it with the supplied drivers under 9.0. I did not have to set up any extra parameters. Make sure your scanner is on, then start up MCC. Go to Hardware. Ignore the Scanners icon, that seems to be for setting one up manually, and you shouldn't need to do that. Look at Hardware List. Is your scanner recognised? If so, it should work.
How are you trying to use it? You can scan from XSane, but I prefer to scan from Gimp. It's up to you. Let us know how you get on. Anne -- Registered Linux User No.293302
