Sane as in scanners on Linux that is, you don't have to be actually sane! :-)
I have an Epson V700 scanner which is listed as supported by the sane-epson backend. However I'm having a hard time getting the thing recognised by anything at all.
Hi Chris, I'm not seeing a solution to your problem (actually it's not clear what the specific problem is), but try having a look at
man sane-epson
I've looked there, it didn't really get me any further, I have put what seems like the right things in the /etc/sane.d/epson.conf file but it hasn't helped.
I've even run sane-troubleshoot and that says everything works perfectly and even made the scanner scan! (It thinks it's a different Epson scanner but that's just because it's quite old I suspect)
So both sane-find-scanner and sane-troubleshoot think everything is OK but none of the actual user utilities can see the scanner at all!
