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).

Your scanner is completed supported by sane. Is it installed?
apt-get install sane.
Plug in the scanner and issue the commands
sane-find-scanner
and
scanimage -L
Post the outputs of the commands in your next mail here. (N.B. Don't
forget to post as text).
