I did the following. The scsi stuff is intriguing. Are most scanners scsi?:


[chris at p733 chris]$ scanimage -L
 
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).
[chris at p733 chris]$ sane-find-scanner
 
  # No SCSI scanners found. If you expected something different, make 
sure that
  # you have loaded a SCSI driver for your SCSI adapter.
 
found USB scanner (vendor=0x03f0, product=0x4811) at libusb:001:002
  # Your USB scanner was (probably) detected. It may or may not be 
supported by
  # SANE. Try scanimage -L and read the backend's manpage.
 
  # 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
  # necessary.
