Install the most recent SANE packages from the Cooker as I can scan on the Epson Perfection 2450 with them (this scanner uses the same driver as yours).
Run "sane-find-scanner" as root. The output should contain something like
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8, product=0x0...) at /dev/usb/scanner0
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0... [EPSON Scanner]) at libusb:001:007
The first of the two lines only appears when the "scanner" kernel module is loaded (with most scanners it is loaded automatically, if not, you can load it with "modprobe scanner" and check with "lsmod". The two lines are for two access methods. The driver for your scanner ("epson") only supports the first one, so you have to load the "scanner" kernel module.
Edit /etc/sane.d/dll.conf adding a line containing only the word "epson".
Edit /etc/sane.d/epson.conf so that it contains the following line (if there are other lines, leave them as they are):
usb /dev/usb/scanner0
Now you must be able to access the scanner with xsane or with "scanimage > test.pnm". Try it as root if it does not work as normal user.
If not, please do (logged in as normal user if you only can scan as root, logged in as root if you cannot scan at all):
SANE_DEBUG_EPSON=255 scanimage > test.pnm 2> epson-scan.log
Check the file epson-scan.log and make it available to us.

I have been having consistent crashes with scannerdrake after a
fresh install of 9.1b1. When I run scannerdrake, I am told my HP ScanJet3400C is not in the scanner database, and am asked if I would like to
configure it manually or not. No matter what I choose nothing seems to
happen except for the program to crash. the output, though fairly useless,is:
# scannerdrake
TODO: XSetInputFocus if force_focus
TODO: ensure focus stuff
TODO: XSetInputFocus if force_focus
TODO: ensure focus stuff

I hope this helps,
