I just got a little epson scanner (DS-40) and I have been having problems getting it working.
I installed the drivers from this page and the device powers on and shows up under lsusb
Bus 001 Device 012: ID 04b8:0152 Seiko Epson Corp.
The driver installer script installed these packages
graphicsmagick libgraphicsmagick++11 libgraphicsmagick3
But I cant work out how I actually scan with it. When I put paper in it it grabs on to it but doesn't scan. Running scanimage -L returns
device `epsonds:libusb:001:013' is a Epson DS-40 ESC/I-2
device `imagescan:usb:esci:/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb1/1-13/1-13:1.0' is a EPSON Epson_DS-40 1 Answer
After installing the drivers from the website running the command imagescan starts up a GUI which lets you pick the scan options and scan the document.
