I have an Epson 1650 (no photo), and after DAYS of googling, just one line fixed my USB problem.
In /etc/modules.conf, and "alias usb-controller usb-uhci" (that is assuming your MOBO is UHCI). If it works, you will see stuff in a new "directory" in the /proc/bus "directory" called "usb". This "directory" will have a devices file with lots of good info. You can also type in the command mount, and you should see a usddevfs file system mounted. The reason I put quotes around "directory" in /proc, is because it is not real directory, but just in memory.
