Subject: Problems with my CanoScan 670 U

Hi,

I've got RedHat 8.0 and a CanoScan 670 U. I use the following versions
of sane:
sane-backends-1.0.8-5
xsane-gimp-0.84-8
sane-backends-devel-1.0.8-5
xsane-0.84-8
sane-frontends-1.0.8-4

I loaded the scanner.o with options:
modprobe scanner vendor=0x04a9 product=0x220d

Sane-find-Scanner has the following output:
sane-find-scanner: found USB scanner (vendor = 0x04a9, product = 0x220d)
at device /dev/usb/scanner0

I tried xsane with:
xsane -d /etc/sane.d/plustek.conf /dev/usb/scanner0

but it doesn't work

"failed to open device: /dev/usb/scanner0.  invalid argument"

scanimage also fails:
"scanimage: no SANE devices found"

What can I do now?

Thanks for your help.

Aron
