Couldn't you find the right place to modify or wasn't the scanner
detected?

Is it detected by the kernel scanner module? Is it found by
sane-find-scanner?

If the scanner uses the same chip as the "2007" model it should be
sufficiant to add a line like this at in plustek-devs.c:

{"0x0458-0x2004",  &Cap0x07B3_0x0007_0, &Hw0x07B3_0x0007_0, "ColorPage-HR6 V2" },

then recompile (touch backend/plustek.c, make, make install).

Edit plustek.conf and add
[usb] 0x0458 0x2004
and the scanner device name.

You can get more information with
SANE_DEBUG_PLUSTEK=255 scanimage -L

Bye,
