Already done, but no way of operation.If I look in the Hardware browser, 
scanner is included in system devices with Quickcam express, and not in 
USB devices.

The only difference in epson.conf that lat line is:
usb /dev/usb/usbscanner0

as I made a mknod /dev/usbscanner0 c 180 48 and chmod 666 /dev/usbscanner0

Tnx
