No scanners were identified. 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). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
$ sudo scanimage -L
device `epkowa:libusb:001:011' is a Epson Stylus CX3900/DX4000 flatbed scanner
device `epson:libusb:001:011' is a Epson CX4000 flatbed scanner
I have to add the following 2 lines in /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libsane.rules to
get it detected:
# Epson DX-4050
SYSFS{idVendor}=="04b8", SYSFS{idProduct}=="082f", MODE="664", GROUP="scanner"
I reported it to the sane-devel mailing list, it has been answered that
the SANE package has just been updated (see
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/sane-
devel/2007-November/020233.html).
I just installed libsane-extras 1.0.18.12, it still does not work (ie I
must edit etc/udev/rules.d/45-libsane.rule to get my scanner detected).
