I would like to thank you for your time and just for taking the time to respond to my inquiry. Your response pointed me in the proper direction and I have finally been able to get my USB Epson Perfection 1660 Photo scanner up and running under FreeBSD 4.7. Many thanks.
Chuy p.s. I was able to get my scanner to work without having to use the "scanimage -d Epson:/dev/uscanner0" like you had suggested. I am able to use just "scanimage" or "xsane" and it seems to work well. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Henning Meier-Geinitz Sent: Wednesday, March 05, 2003 2:06 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [sane-devel] Sane Epson Backend Hi, On Tue, Mar 04, 2003 at 08:58:17PM -0800, Jesus A.

The Epson backend has full support for libusb since SANE version 1.0.10 so you may want to update if you don't use this or a newer version. You can also try to add a line like this to epson.conf: usb libusb:/dev/usb0:/dev/ugen0 > What gives? Any ideas anyone? Please help. To find out what's going on you can enable debugging by setting the SANE_DEBUG_EPSON environment variable. See man sane-epson for details.
