I agree about some similarities in the log file.

I progress hardly.

I found that the calibration commands are not the same between V100
and the epjitsu driver but I don't know wich are the new ones.

Currently I don't know how to test my backend code:
sane-find-scanner finds the scanner but it is not identified by `scanimage -L`.
However, it's the same problem for the normal install package (using
epkowa). With epkowa, xsane works.

Perhaps an udev rules problem?


(I removed noah from cc because he is on the sane mailing list. I
didn't remove you because I don't know if it's the same case.)

 # sane-find-scanner will now attempt to detect your scanner. If the
 # result is different from what you expected, first make sure your
 # scanner is powered up and properly connected to your computer.

 # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make sure that
 # you have loaded a kernel SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.
 # Also you need support for SCSI Generic (sg) in your operating system.
 # If using Linux, try "modprobe sg".

 # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be supported by

 # Not checking for parallel port scanners.

 # Most Scanners connected to the parallel port or other proprietary ports
 # can't be detected by this program.

 # You may want to run this program as root to find all devices. Once you
 # found the scanner devices, be sure to adjust access permissions as

No scanners were identified. If you were expecting something different,
check that the scanner is plugged in, turned on and detected by the
sane-find-scanner tool (if appropriate). Please read the documentation
which came with this software (README, FAQ, manpages).
