Hello all, I noticed yesterday that I am having a very similar problem as David Cook reported "USBDEVFS_BULK failed errors - Epson Perfection 2400 Photo"
I have an Epson 2450 Photo, USB, kernel 2.6.7-1-686 (though it also happened with 2.6.6). Strangely my errors only happen when I try to do multiple scans in quick succession. Errors occur with scanimage or xsane (batch scanning). The first scan always works fine (the reason I haven't noticed it until now) the next scans then fail. I then have to power off the scanner (which is what I normally do after a single scan anyway) or unplug the USB. Other USB devices seem to be working fine (e.g. external hard disc) scanimage error (after initial successful scan) scanimage: sane_start: Error during device I/O syslog output kernel: usb 1-2: bulk timeout on ep1in kernel: usb 1-2: usbfs: USBDEVFS_BULK failed ep 0x81 len 1 Is this a kernel issue with USB or a sane issue? PS - according to your web interface I am subscribed to the mailing list but I now realise I haven't seen a message for weeks! -- Regards, Iain.
