there are 3 backends which support this machine. the one which lists
these two points is external to sane, so you might want to ask avasys
directly. of the other two, one is unmaintained, and the other is new,
so we may not be able to provide you with an answer.
maybe you can get one and tell us
I went to the epson-avasys web site and found they provide
these files for this scanner:
iscan-2.10.0-1.c2.i386.rpm
iscan_2.10.0-1.tar.gz
userg_revG_e.pdf
I have not trie their driver yet. Will let you know once I have the scanner.

I have made the part of epson2 backend that special for the Perfection 4990
scanner. Every thing should work, but more testing would be nice. I have too
made the part of the epson backend (the old driver) for 4990, but there are a
few thing not working, especial with the transperant unit.
What functionality is missing from this driver other than
1- film area guide mode not supported
2- IEEE1394 untested
