Could someone help me to get the scanner part of this device working? I haven't got it working although I've got it recognised as a RX500. The problem is that it somehow cannot switch the device on.
output of command "lsusb" is: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 04b8:0807 Seiko Epson Corp. output of "sane-find-scanner" is: # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that # you have loaded a SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter. found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0807 [USB2.0 MFP]) at libusb:001:002 # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage. # Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports can't be # detected by this program. output of scanimage -L [epson] Unknown type R or level d, using B3 device `v4l:/dev/video0' is a Noname Terratec Cinergy 400 TV virtual device device `epson:libusb:001:002' is a Epson RX500 flatbed scanner If I start xsane as a user I don't get to see the device, but as root it gives me the option of using my TV-card or the RX500 device. After selecting the RX500 xsane starts well. Now if I want to make a scan or a prescan it generates a message that it cant switch on the device. "wrong/false argument". Seems I close but I haven't got enough administrator experience with these type of devices. Am I missing something simple here? //Marcellino
