So, I did dump all the conf files in a folder and reinstalled. The genesys.conf does have a 220 entry now, but I still can't get any further:

scanimage (sane-backends) 1.0.25git; backend version 1.0.25

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04a9, product=0x190f, chip=GL848+?) at libusb:002:002 # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by

No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate).

Allan,

What does that mean? Do I have to manually clean out the conf files before installing?
