Moin Reinhard, welcome to the wonderful world of Reflecta/PIE interfaces. ;-) Please run export SANE_DEBUG_PIEUSB=11 in a shell and then start xsane from there. This should report the model number.

Is it on purpose that pieusb is not in dll.conf by default?

Awesome, you're all set.

What am I doing wrong? Nothing. You just happen to be the first to use this scanner.
