It is *not* part of the libsane package you installed. I assume you installed the iscan bundle available from: http://support.epson.net/linux/en/iscan_c.php?version=1.0.4 > In console > " sudo sane-find-scanner -v > [sudo] password for swami: > [...snip...] > found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x08a1 [EPSON L210 > Series]) at libusb:004:002 OK, so you've got an L210 Series device. > Please Help to solve the problem.. > > see the attached screenshot pic of error messages of iScan, xsane, simple > scan and printer config window etc. OK, so you've got iscan installed ;-) Looks like you have a permissions problem. Your user needs to be part of the scanner group. Is it? You can check with $ groups | grep scanner If this produced no output, you can fix that with $ sudo adduser swami scanner Then log out of you desktop session and back in again. If it was indeed a permissions problem, you should now be able to use your scanner.
