This scanner is not currently supported by sane. However, in March there was a discussion about this scanner, which implied that it uses a Genesys Logic GL847 chipset. Stef has recently added support for this chipset to the sane-genesys backend. So, it may be possible to make the modifications required to support this machine, if you use a current git snapshot of sane-backends. Perhaps you and Catalin David can work together, with some advice from stef?
