I'm new to scanning and relatively new to Linux. Searched the web for info and got the impression, which others confirmed, that generally anything epson works with Linux, but maybe not the 3490! sane-find-scanner gets vendor and product code but scanimage -L finds nothing.
Having now read a previous mail about the 4490 I'm guessing that the same applies to the 3490, ie no go..are my fears justified? Vuescan which does support the 3490 but I've got to learn more about usb first before going down that road - or is there hope. Jim
