Hi Staedtler, I didn't refresh the page before posting, so I didn't see Your post #76. Believe it or not the congrats go to You, I would have never done it without brainstorming with You, and Your posts #71 and 72 have been elightening. Regarding the /etc/sane.d/dll.d/libsane-extras file, I assume that to be in place the libsane-extras package has to be installed. I was so excited I forgot to double check if some symlink is needed between /usr/lib/sane and /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu and the like. I'll report back if required, for the benefit of the summary. If I do not pop in it means that no other step is to be taken, but I'm here if anybody needs help or clarifications. Regards, Luca

But the scanner is no more recognized. Scanners that are affected are(besides others): - Epson Perfection V10 - Epson Perfection V1000 - Epson WorkForce GT-1500 - Brother MFC-8510DN - Epson Perfection V33 It is to note that the probability that the scanner manufacturers fix things others broke is below 100%.
