I have used the Epson 1640 SU Photo under Mac OSX 10.2 with USB and Twain 5 for scanning 6x6 slides, and had no such problems. It worked great, at least for web publishing.
I do remember I had some problems the first time convincing the scanner to skip the all automatic scanning. I've returned the scanner now so I can't help you by recalling what I did, but I think I had to click on the scanner window while the Twain was loading, or something like that...
