To permanently disable the kernel scanner driver, you probably have to
modify the hotplug configuration so that the module is no longer
automatically loaded. One crude way of doing this is to rename
the scanner.o file.

Rest assured, it is.

You may know that, but your scanne
The scanner is fully supported with Sane. It is also correctly identified:
The GT-9300 is the internal name of the device. The name "Perfection 2400"
is not stored anywhere in the firmware, it's just printed on the outside.
The Sane backend only sees the internal name, and this is what it reports.

I had heard that my EPSON Perfection 2400 scanner was supported by
SANE. I plugged it into the USB port on a computer running Red Hat
Linux 9.0, installed SANE from source, and then ran the
"sane-find-scanner" program. I got the following output:
# sane-find-scanner
# No SCSI scanners found.
