This is the first report a have about this SCanner. But usually the
ScanMagic are equivalent to Mustek scanners. Is the vndor id 0x055f
and the product id 0x0008?

It is supported.

Is the scanner lsited in /proc/bus/usb/devices and is there a line
with "driver=usbscanner"? If no ("driver=(none)" the scanner wasn't
detected by the scanner driver and you must tell him maually: rmmod
scanner; modprobe scanner vendor=0x055f product=0x0008.

Don't do that. That's only for SCSI scanners. Remove this file and use
"mknod /dev/usb/scanner0 c 180 48".

Also check the permissions of this file.

Edit mustek_usb.conf and enter something like this:

/dev/usbscanner0
option 1200cu_plus

If this doesn't work, please sen the output of sane-find-scanner and a
debug log from "SANE_DEBUG_MUSTEK_USB=255 scanimage -L 2>debugg.log"
to me.

Bye,
  Henning
