Not with the epkowa backend (as per limitations in the iscan README).
Maybe the snapscan backend does, but I doubt that.

I don't know much about csh. Try again in bash, or use 

SANE_DEBUG_SNAPSCAN=255 xsane 2>debug.log 

(all in one line).

No, the film feeder is not supported with the snapscan backend either.

i reinstalled sane-backends-1.0.16_2 from freebsd ports

i get:

with no device available.

and after a fresh init of the scanner i get (with the i/o error message):

[sane-devel] Benq 5300U not working with sane-backends-1.0.17

Yes, that should be correct.

The file is most probably ok.

You're right - the 5300 entry is the one for the 5300U. The problem 
you're reporting has been experienced before by other people (hence 
my remark on that scanner on the snapscan page). I don't know yet how 
to solve this problem - maybe the log from the USB layer can shed 
some more light. To produce it, use SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_USB=255.

I will take a look at the patch when i find some time. I guess this
should be done for software b/w as used by the gl646 part, too.

[sane-devel] Any further with canoscan LiDE 500F?

I didn't do any further work, apart from those postings. I don't know if
Michael made any progress.

If you are willing to add code for the Canon Canoscan LiDE 500F, I am
able to help you with some of the driver related aspects. You still need
to figure out the scanner specifics, like how to switch between full ccd
resolution and half(to name something more obscure). This involves hours
of experiments, good guesses, and a lot staring at usb logs.
