Hi,

It is hard to decide what went wrong without step-by-step explanation of what was done.

Just a wild shots, 

1. Is the scanner registered in the system, i.e. is there something in:
/var/lib/iscan/interpreter ?

2. Do you have some major distribution iscan packages installed in parallel to the Epson proprietary packages?

Thanks in advance for your answers.

Best regards,
Yuri
