My Epson Stylus Photo RX620 is also not apparently supported by xsane
although listed on the sane site as supported by epson2 ("epson" is
commented out in the default /etc/sane.d/dll.conf).

On connection I get a "no devices available" warning, although xsane
loads.  If I run xsane from the command line I get a segfault when the
printer is on.  However sometimes "scanimage -d epson2" does produce
output (although I can't get it in Gimp's File > Create > xsane dialogue
and the scan button doesn't work) and scanimage -L also lists the device
(currently more often than not).  So is it more likely to be a problem
with xsane than libsane?

found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x0811 [USB2.0 MFP])
at libusb:001:002

I created a /etc/udev/rules.d/45-libsane.rules with
SYSFS{idVendor}=="04b8", SYSFS{idProduct}=="0811", MODE="664", GROUP="scanner"

"man sane-dll" doesn't seem to be in the package. "man sane-epson2" is.

Quite sure it's not a permissions issue - I'm a member of saned / lp /
lpadmin groups and also happens as root.

I may try to get more info on the segmentation fault.  I also see the
"Unhandled message" warning mentioned in comment 2 above,
