Did you tell the OP that? I missed it. Oh, I see you asked what file the OP downloaded and that question was left hanging without a response. Epson only seems to provide a single generic package for their scanners/multifunction printers. http://support.epson.net/linux/en/imagescanv3.php http://download.ebz.epson.net/man/linux/imagescanv3_e.html#sec6-1 I was thrown off by the OP's error message: Failed to open device 'epkowa:usb:002:003': Maybe that's related to the (perhaps unwise) entry the OP added to /etc/sane.d/epkowa.conf. It's true the installation manual linked above makes no mention of it. > (Incidentally, the bug that the Ubuntu advice is targeting is one > that was never present in Debian stable, testing or unstable).
