It attaches by a usb connection.
What happens when you plug it in? (it is switched on, yes?)
What does lsusb show? (you may need to be root to run it)
Cheers, Dave

Looks like it has a proprietary driver. You could write to Olympus for
information and maybe try to write a driver. I must admit that when I
looked into writing a USB driver for an ADF image scanner I found it
incomprehensibly complex, but I tried to do it from first principles
instead of looking at existing code which probably wasn't the most
effective approach.
I found a tool called USB snoopy. http://www.google.com/search?q=usb+snoopy
