The firmware (esfw41.bin) I'm using which seems to work OK doing 
transparencies on sane backends 1.0.16 has the following version info at the 
very end of the file:

EPSON   GT-F500         1.16

I got this firmware by downloading the 2.6v version of the scanner software 
from Epson's support site. The file I got was named epson19983eu.zip, and I 
extracted the firmware file from the ModUsd.cab file in the zip archive using 
cabextract.
