strace shows that there is only /etc/sane.d/epson.conf:

[fbriere] toroia:~ $ grep epson log 
read(3, "epson\n# enable the next line if "..., 4096) = 341
open("/usr/lib/sane/libsane-epson.so.1", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/usr/lib/sane/libsane-epson.so.1", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("./epson.conf", O_RDONLY)          = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
open("/etc/sane.d/epson.conf", O_RDONLY) = 5
read(5, "# epson.conf\n#\n# here are some e"..., 4096) = 778
