Still not working. Most recently, I thought it might be a UDEV problem, so I set up a Udev rule for the scanner. That didn't help - at least with Simple Scan.
The device is recognized as a USB device, so I expect the problem is a missing driver. The scanner works fine on Windows 8.1. Peter > Peter, did you manage to find a resolution.
