Unless there is yet another USB product ID I've never heard of, I think that should be 0x4b8/0x819. At least, that's what's in epkowa.desc ;-) > works perfectly with the epson backend if the USB IDs are > added to epson.conf, see > https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206428 > > Up to now it seems only the epkowa backend (version 2.1.0) > knows about this model, see > http://www.sane-project.org/cgi-bin/driver.pl?manu=epson&model=cx4800 On a related note, I recently discovered that, even if you don't need a binary-only non-free plugin, not all epkowa supported devices work with the epson backend. In my case, this happened with a PM-A750 (aka Stylus Photo RX520/530). I haven't really looked into it but if first impressions are anything to go by it may have to do something with the (not) sending of the ESC i command and the processing of its reply. # Me goes back to work ...
