Has anyone had any sucess installing the scanning portion of the EPSON Stylus CX4600?
If so, what settings were used?
Is there a driver update for it or is it still using a workaround driver?
I've tried Sane and XSane both will not find the usb scanner.
I'm using SuSE 9.2 with a Dell Inspiron 2500 Dual Boot WinXP / SuSE
Thanks in advance.
I have tried to get cx3650 to work with kooka but there is still something wrong. I have done same kind of things that user ibharti and now I can use kooka in root mode but not in normal user mode! kooka doen't find my scanner in user mode but in root mode it is showing screen what scanner is used!?! what can I do? is this some kind of user rights case?
this is what I have done:
This is a multifunction device I got to work using Gimp-print's CX3100 driver.
I tried it with 100x100, 360x360, 720x360 (no apparent difference from 360x360)
and 720x720; other resolutions I didn't try, nor did I try photographic paper,
etc.
The scanner works too, and it is identified by SANE as a CX3600, but only after
doing this:
1) Get the manufacturer & product numbers:
# sane-find-scanner
[...]
found USB scanner (vendor=0x04b8 [EPSON], product=0x080e [USB MFP]) at
libusb:001:002
[...]
2) Modify /etc/sane.d/epson.conf to look for it by adding these numbers to the
"usb" line:
usb 0x4b8 0x80e
3) Add a line for this scanner to /etc/hotplug/usb/libsane.usermap:
I can use kooka scanner program when I'm logged in by root but when logged in by normal user kooka can't find the scanner and all the functions are missing in kooka program! so what I have to do that all users have permission to use scanner in kooka? I hope this helps...

Hi gallan,
I'm thinking about this printer but I would like to get some feedbacks
Is it able to print good quality text like for CV/Résumé with sharp letters??
And how is the economy mode? Does it give a quite nice output or only a very poor draft quality?
