Greetings All,
 
I am currently using FreeBSD 4.7 as my os, and recently purchased and
Epson 1660 USB color scanner.  My hope was to purchase a scanner that
was compatiable with Sane Backends.  All the lists that I search for say
that the backends will work with my scanner.  I have run the
‘sane-find-scanner’ utility and it returns the following:
 
            Found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8, product=0x011e) at
libusb:/dev/usb0:/dev/ugen0
 
The next few lines go on to say that a USB device was detected but that
it can’t be sure that it’s a scanner to try ‘scanimage –L’.  So I do and
it returns the following:
 
            No scanners were identified.  If you were expecting
something different check that the scanner is plugged 

 
When I pull the USB cable out from the back of the computer it returns
the following:
 
            ugen0: at uhub0 port 1 (addr 2) disconnected
            ugen0: detached
 
When I plug the USB cable back in it returns the following:
 
            Ugen0: EPSON EPSON Scanner, rev 2.00/1.00, addr 2
 
What gives?  Any ideas anyone?  Please help.
