Have you tried the epkowa backend?  It's included with Image Scan! for
Linux, available from:

  http://download.ebz.epson.net/dsc/search/01/search/?OSC=LX

Or the epson2 backend, which comes part of sane-backends.  Disable the
epson backend and enable the epson2 backend in your dll.conf.

There does not seem to be a problem communicating with the device.  The
device protocol bits show up as expected.

Hope this helps,
