All these scanners are SCSI. The SCSI protocoll is only transported over the USB in case of USB devices. So they use a kernel SCSI-over-USB driver (called "microtek"). So you either need to port this Linux driver to MacOS X or do the SCSI-over-USB logic in the backend itsself. Maybe the maintainer can tell you more about how complicated this may be. Userland SCSI-over-USB is used at least in the ma1509 and the avison backends. Bye, Henning
