This number should can vary depending on reboot. I have a Perfection 1250 , iscan-1.8.1-0.redhat.8.0 installed. Here is my dll.conf $ more dll.conf # enable the next line if you want to allow access through the network: epkowa Here is my epkowa.conf : $ more epkowa.conf # epkowa.conf # # examples for how to configure the SANE EPSON KOWA Backend # # SCSI scanner: #scsi EPSON # # Parallel port scanner: #pio 0x278 #pio 0x378 #pio 0x3BC # # USB scanner - only enable this if you have an EPSON scanner. It could # otherwise block your non-EPSON scanner from being # recognized. usb After each reboot, I am doing the appropriate chmod, and I have no problem using iscan on my scanner.
