Hi,

there is no need to send a copy of every email to me, I'm reading the
sane-devel list.

Ok.

Yes, that's ok. sane-find-scanner should find every scanner.

You'll get the cigar when you have written the SANE driver for this
scanner. As mentioned in my previous mail, there is most probably no
driver yet for this scanner. For writing a driver see:

Even if you don't want to write a driver, please show us the output of
"cat /proc/bus/usb/devices" when your scanner is plugged in.
