        Hello,

        your parallel port is certainly set to a mode that the backend does
not handle correctly. Possibly, it may not be in EPP mode at all. Also,
some older versions wrongly detected scanners as 610P. Which may be what is
happening to you. 
        So there are 2 things to do. First check that your BIOS sets your
parallel port to EPP (ECP+EPP may work). Check it is correctly detected by the
kernel for instance by typing:
dmesg|grep parport

which should return a line like:
parport0: PC-style at 0x278, irq 5 [PCSPP,TRISTATE,EPP]

EPP must be listed, or the backend won't work.


        Second updgrade to sane-backend 1.0.11 at least.

Regards,
        Stef
