Hi,

I did that (it took some time as I don't have a win machine), and the 
scanner worked OK (I haven't tried to actually scan something, but the 
initialization procedure went allright.

When I connected back to my ubuntu machine... nothing! But it used to 
work on this very machine until I reinstalled sane! How come the scanner 
is no longer detected?

Sorry for my questions, but I'm completely lost!
