Well, let me give you some info that was given me.  It was given for a 610u 
and I have the 1200u, so I only had to change the product number.  You can 
maybe find yours at the sane site.  Mine for the 1200u is 0x0104.

"Have you already done the following?
1) mknod /dev/subscanner0 c 180 48
chmod 666 /dev/usbscanner0
2) Install sane & xsane
3) Edit /etc/sane.d/epson.conf to match your configuration (the only
uncommented line has to be "usb /dev/usbscanner0" without quotes)
4) You have to have usb working
insmod usbcore
insmod usb-uhci
5) insmod scanner vendor=0x04b8 product= 0x0103  # Note: 0x0103 is Perfection
610 (mine)  ;)

Hope that helps.
