You do have the uscanner device loaded or compiled in, right?

uscanner.c[1] appears to use a list of device IDs to tell it which devices
it should attach.  There appears to be a line for the Epson 1260, which has
been said to work, but I don't see a line that appears to be for the
CX-5400.  Given that device ID lists have a bad habit of not keeping up with
new models, you might want to try adding the appropriate lines to uscanner.c
and usbdevs[2].

The usual warnings about panics, etc. apply.
