I am quite sure this must be a FAQ but I can't find the answer to it anywhere...
I recently switched to Ubuntu Linux, running Breezey 5.10. I purchased an Epson Perfection 3490 since the various SANE pages I visited indicated a pretty high level of support for Epson scanners in general. But I admit I'm at a loss as to how to get it to work, and some pointers to some really basic steps would be great. I have not added any optional packages or anything. sane-find-scanner finds it: found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0122 [EPSON Scanner]) at libusb:005:109 but scanimage says "scanimage: no SANE devices found" and likewise xsane. Is there some other configuration I need to do? Thanks, dwh
