I a trying to get an epson CX7000F all-in-one working with sane. I have the printer working on gutenprint, the the scanner is still not working.
sane-find-scanner tells me the scanner is there with vendor=0x04b8 product=0x0831, lsusb tells me Bus 004 Device 010: ID 04b8:0831 Seiko Epson Corp. scanimage -L cannot find the scanner. I have tried adding: usb 0x04b8 0x0831 to /etc/sane.d/epson.conf ATTR{idVendor}=="04b8", ATTR{idProduct}=="0831", SYMLINK+="scanner-%k" to /etc/udev/rules.d/60-libsane.rules, but scanimage still does not see the scanner. Should I try the plustek backend, perhaps ? That worked with my old epson 1260. I am using sane-backends 1.0.18-15 on a fedora 7 system. carl
