Hello,
this old web page has some information for UMAX 1220P which may be of
some help: http://umax1220p.sourceforge.net/trouble.html . The plustek-pp man
page recommends that the port should be set in BIOS to EPP, not ECP.
I also had many issues with incorrect build time kernel configuration
regarding superio chipset use. I think it is worth checking.
Regards,
Stef
