Dave: I believe you're going to be disappointed on this one. It's not a matter of a hardware device or dongle. It's a matter of software device drivers, and Epson is very proprietary about their's.
I'm expecting to pick up a flatbed scanner sometime in the coming months, and I will be looking to deploy it via my router for access from any device on my network, but I will not be looking at Epson products for that functionality.
