I'm having trouble getting a Plustek 4831P scanner to work with sarge.
There's an Epson printer daisy-chained off the scanner which works with
CUPS. Both worked with Redhat 7.3.
Any help would be appreciated - I've run out of ideas.
conf files, debugs, etc:
mick@dell933 $ dmesg|grep parport
parport: PnPBIOS parport detected.
parport0: PC-style at 0x378 (0x778), irq 7, using FIFO
[PCSPP,TRISTATE,COMPAT,EPP,ECP]
parport0: Printer, EPSON Stylus COLOR 460
lp0: using parport0 (interrupt-driven).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
mick@dell933 $ scanimage -L
No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).

The notes in /etc/sane.d/dll.conf say debian puts some files (?) in
/etc/sane.d/dll.d - this directory is empty
