At the moment, scanimage gives this output:

#> scanimage -L
device `escl:http://127.0.0.1:60001' is a Epson XP-4100 Series (USB 1) flatbed scanner
device `imagescan:esci:usb:/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:12.2/usb1/1-6/1-6:1.0' is a EPSON XP-4100_Series

in dll.conf the only related lines are these:

#epson
epson2
epsonds
escl

and this is the content of dll.d:

#####################################################################
#> ls -l /etc/sane.d/dll.d/
total 8
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 38 apr  1  2020 hplip
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 44 gen 22  2020 imagescan
#> ls -l /etc/sane.d/dll.d/imagescan 
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 44 gen 22  2020 /etc/sane.d/dll.d/imagescan
#> more !$
more /etc/sane.d/dll.d/imagescan
#  imagescan -- dll.conf snippet

imagescan

#>
#####################################################################

is there any fast/best way to figure out what I should comment, or
should I just go with trial and error?

Thanks,
Marco
