Yes that was clear to me when checking the japanes homepage of Epson.

Not only you as a devoloper ....

Hmm i am just wondering why iscan 1.4. doesn't use the TPU any more. That 
worked fine with debian 3.0rc1 abd mdk 9.0. But now on mdk 9.1 also the 1.4 
version doesn't recognice the TPU ... But If you say its the epkowa backend 
I will wait for an update ...
