Hi Andrew. My scanner needs a firmware file to be downloaded and installed. Is this the same for Epson?. Although it has the driver (snapscan in my case), it still needs this firmware file - Mine is a Benq scanner (quite old). I often forget to install this file when I connect the scanner to a new PC and it will not be detected by sane without it, but will show in lsusb. Its possible too that I have had to install 32 bit libraries as well. Usually you will find more info on the sane website under supported device section. Cheers Daniel.

Hi All
I have a SCSI scanner which normally "just works" under Linux. I have just loaded a fresh OpenSuse 13.2 (64bit) OS. The scanner is found in lspci and also in the hardware detection in Suse. For some reason XSANE cannot see it. When using the scanner setup tool in the YAST , it identifies the scanner but reports that the driver is not configured. The driver should be the sane-epson2. What am I missing, please?
