Okay, a little more headway: I installed the Epson iScan package from http://www.avasys.jp/english/linux_e/dl_scan.html After converting it to a .deb, I installed it with --force-overwrite and it installed. The scanner *still* seems to be resetting every few seconds and getting a new USB device number, which doesn't seem right (from dmesg): [4298121.465000] usb 5-1: USB disconnect, address 94 [4298121.633000] usb 5-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 95 [4298148.215000] usb 5-1: USB disconnect, address 95 [4298148.383000] usb 5-1: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 96 scanimage now fails with: scanimage: sane_start: Invalid argument when I turn debugging on, I get a ton of detail I can't make heads or tails of grin. See it here: http://pastebin.com/435805 . Any suggestions? Thanks! dwh

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).

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

The Canon LiDE 35/40/50 scanners are now supported in cvs. I hope we didn't break any of the currently supported scanners. I want to thank everyone, especially St?phane, for their input.
