Hi, I had to change some things in /etc/sane*/somefile.conf, not epson, my epson uses another thing. I also had to extract some firmware from the windows driver, but it was all documented in the sane manuals. I did this so long ago that I am not exactly sure of what I had to do, but maybe it helps. Try googling for your model scanner and sane.
