I've managed to get my Epson CX-3200 print/scan/copy device working very =

with Linux, for the most part. Printing through CUPS works fine, and I'v=

finally managed to get SANE configured to use my scanner. How simple it =

when you know how...
As for what driver it's using, 'scanimage -L' gives=20
'device `Epson:/dev/usb/scanner0' is a Epson CC-570L scanner' and that wo=

for the most part. There is one obnoxious problem, however; when the=20
scanner decides it needs to warm up for awhile first(the LCD on the front=

panel says 'warming up'), Xsane waits awhile, gives an error popup messag=

then spinlocks(taking 100% cpu) until it's killed. Upon restarting Xsane=

the scanner's warmed up by now and works again. Is this a known problem?
