Welcome Jaco I had a devil of a time getting my Epson scanner (Perfection 2450) to work. Turns out there was a misprint in the configuration file as supplied with my distro.
>From a terminal window, run sane-find-scanner (that'll tell you where the scanner is). I'll assume your scanner is on /dev/usb/scanner0. Then have a look at /etc/sane.d/epson.conf The last line of /etc/sane.d/epson.conf may read # usb /dev/usbscanner0 If that's the case, then comment out every other line (most of them should be commented out already) - i.e. make sure every other line starts with #; delete the starting # of this line; and insert a forward slash between "usb" and "scanner0". The line should read usb /dev/usb/scanner0 Make sure the permissions for /dev/usb/scanner0 are set to 777. Sorry if I've given too much detail but as a non-geek I find it easier to be frustrated by too little info than insulted by too much. =====Andrew On Thu, 2003-07-24 at 16:19, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > I came across this group yesterday while searching for a way to get > the Epson Kowa scanner driver > (http://www.epkowa.co.jp/english/index_e.html) going.
