[sane-devel] Mustek BearPaw 2448CU pro

[Jack McGill]

There was a thread about this same scanner last month.
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/sane-devel/2008-November/023053.html
The author got about as far as you did.

Next you are going to have to do some usb snooping on a windows machine using either http://www.pcausa.com/Utilities/UsbSnoop/ or http://benoit.papillault.free.fr/usbsnoop/. 

Then try to figure out the meaning of the snoop logs. Snoop logs are too big to post here, so you will need to find a free web site to post them to. I've used google site for this in the past.
