I final have the scanner working but I need to ask a couple of questions.

SuSe is using udev and I found the usb and its info in /sys/ .

I got it working by disabling epkowa in the dll.conf file and enabling epson. 
sane-find-scanner  Scanimage -L reported:

linux:/home/finemanruss # sane-find-scanner

  # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure 
that
  # you have loaded a SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0813 [USB2.0 MFP]) at 
libusb:001:002
  # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported 
by
  # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.

  # Not checking for parallel port scanners.

  # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports
  # can't be detected by this program.
linux:/home/finemanruss # scanimage -L
device `epson:libusb:001:002' is a Epson Unknown model flatbed scanner

I added the correct vendor ID: 0x04b8 and product ID: 0x0813 to 
libsane.usermap but it still reports Unknown model. 

I don't care if Iscan works, should I use iscan-free instead of iscan 
1.15.0.2-4.1 and is sane rpm -q sane 
sane-1.0.15-20.1 OK. 

Should I get sane 1.0.16 Also what do i need to do  to make this a unknown 
device?

The scanner does scan with xsane and koola. 

Again thanks for all your help. I will try to help with the project as soon as 
I learn more.

 Does it always stop there? It looks like the usb connection somehow
 broke while transfering data. Does the scanner re-register with your
 system at the moment the transmission stops? There will be some kernel
 messages about a new usb device in that case.



Yeah it always stops there, nothing in dmesg about it.

Then i would like to have a full log, with SANE_DEBUG_GENESYS=255,
SANE_DEBUG_GENESYS_GL841=255, SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_USB=255. That log will
get large. Please compress it and send it to me(The list won't accept
messages larger than 50k). If the compressed log is larger than 4MB we
need to find a different transport channel.

Thanks for the log.

Please try the attached patch.
I don't know if it helps. The backend is trying to read 156 bytes
from the scanner, but libusb does not provide that much. We need to find
out where the data is lost. The patch addresses one possible cause.

U.. well... good and bad news.

The patch made it get past where it was stopping before, and now loads
of rubbish appears on the terminal when I do scanimage. I ran xsane to
see if it was scanning anything, hit acquire preview.

The scanner made a few noises, then went bp
until the scan was done. While it was beeping, the scanner head was
lit green.

The image produced was just grey lines on a black-ish background. One
good thing is that if I open the scanner lid mid-scan, it seems to
have an effect on the image appearing on screen.

Sane Screenshot: http://htsc01.b3ta.org/scan.png

Where it gets lighter is where I opened the lid, and darker again when
I closed it.

I'll try getting it onto a Windows system and actually making sure the
scanner works properly :|, maybe I could get a USB snoop while I'm at
it, just in case.

Thanks again :) .

The loads of rubbish actually are the requested image. scanimage
outputs on stdout per default.

Did the head move? xsanes default is to scan in grey mode, which is
translated into a monochrome green scan.

I guess the calibration step failed.

Each scan should look like this:
- (optionally)move head home
- blink lamp
- move head away from home
- blink lamp
- move head home
- (maybe) blink lamp
- move head away from home
- blink lamp
- move head home
- do a short scan
- move head home
- do the real scan

If the head moved in the short scan part, please compress and send me
black_white_shading.pnm. That image should be generated while using
scanimage with SANE_DEBUG_GENESYS=255.

Fantastic! I just messed around with the lock button on the bottom of
the scanner, locking and unlocking a few times, then tilting it to the
side a bit.. and it works now!

All I can guess is that someone picked up the scanner when it was
unlocked and I wasn't looking and it made the scanner head lock in a
funny position... but now it works, so that's cool. :D It was the
bulkin patch that seemed to actually make it scan.

Thanks for your help :)
