My Epson Perfection 1650 only needs the last line in epson.conf to work
with the xsane gimp plug-in. No vendor or device IDs necessary. I don't
use scanimage. Try copying plustek.conf to epson.conf, and adding
"epson" to dll.conf.

The permissions on the uscanner device are 660 for root:usb. The
/dev/usb devices are 660 for root:operator. My user-id is not in the
operator group.
