Hi,

just got an Epson Perfection 1260 scanner which is
supported according to sane, but decides not to scan,
even though the lamp is switched on and the stepper
motor makes one step, if scanimage is started.

sane-find-scanner says:
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8, product=0x011d) at /dev/uscanner0

scanimage -L says:
device `plustek:/dev/uscanner0' is a Epson Perfection 1260/Photo USB flatbed scanner

scanimage -vv > image.pnm says:
scanimage: scanning image of size 248x150 pixels at 24 bits/pixel
scanimage: acquiring RGB frame
scanimage: min/max graylevel value = 255/0
scanimage: sane_read: Error during device I/O
Closing device
Calling sane_exit
scanimage: finished

FreeBSD is 4.8-STABLE from today.

sane: 
  sane-backends-1.0.12_1
  sane-frontends-1.0.9
  xsane-0.90

dmesg:
uscanner0: EPSON EPSON Scanner, rev 1.10/1.00, addr 2

Anything else I could look into?

Regards,
Holger Kipp
