Once again I like to use my scanner and as always I get problem(s). My old scanner is an Epson 4490 Photo. I have tried to find solutions on the net but not succeeded.

Here are some info:

With Vuescan it works as root, but I don't want to pay for that application. Yes, maybe I'm to optimistic. But on the other hand I can't get the newer all-in-one  samsung to work either so, something is wrong (in the world)
