The scanner has been found. That does not mean it can be used. Only 'scanimage -L' will tell us if there is a backend driver for this model.

This command has to give this output *consistently*. Running it 10 or 20 times on the run will enable you to make a judgement. Without a consistent output xsane will not work reliably. In fact, no scanner frontend will work reliably, including what you have from Epson. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > as a root: > :~$ sudo sane-find-scanner [...Snip...] > :~$ sudo scanimage -L > > No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different, If you get this again as a user please post the last few lines shown by 'journalctl'.
