Hi. I'm struggling to get an Epson Perfection 4180 Photo scanner to work with the Epkowa back-end. I'm running Ubuntu Dapper.
I get message: "Failed to find all required interpreter API". I can't find any reference to this, so I'm a bit stuck. Any idea what it means? scanimage finds the USB device and attaches. libesint43.so is installed and it appears the back-end is finding it (scanimage used to error loading the library before I installed it from the rpm). I can see the firmware file at /usr/share/iscan/esfw43.bin. iscan fails to load, complaining it can't find libesmod.so.1 (which is there in /usr/local/lib), but I understand this isn't required by sane. This is the relevant output from: SANE_DEBUG_EPKOWA=255 scanimage -L [epkowa] attach_one_usb() [epkowa] SANE EPKOWA Backend 1.16.0-3 - 2005-06-29 [epkowa] attach(, 3) [epkowa] attach: opening [epkowa] attach_one_usb(libusb:005:006) [epkowa] SANE EPKOWA Backend 1.16.0-3 - 2005-06-29 [epkowa] attach(libusb:005:006, 3) [epkowa] attach: opening libusb:005:006 [epkowa] Found valid EPSON scanner: 0x4b8/0x118 (vendorID/productID) [epkowa] failed to find all required interpreter API [epkowa] close_scanner(fd = 0) Thanks for your help.
