SANE Network Scanner

Hi,

I'm trying to share an Epson Perfection 3490 over the network through
SANE. I know it is supported because it worked on linux (Debian). The
host (FreeBSD 10.1) recognizes it and it seems to work if I invoke this
command:

scanimage -d snapscan:libusb:/dev/usb:/dev/ugen1.3 --format pnm
> /tmp/outfile.pnm

The issue is that my clients (all Debian 7 boxes) don't seem to be able
to detect the scanner over the network using xsane or the scanimage
-L / sane-find-scanner -q commands.

Maybe some of you will be able to enlighten me. Here are the content of
a few configuration files from the server:

/etc/rc.conf
	inetd_enable="YES"
	saned_enable="YES"

/etc/services
	sane-port	6566/tcp #SANE

/etc/inetd.conf
	sane-port	stream	tcp	nowait
	saned	/usr/local/sbin/saned	saned

In /usr/local/etc/sane.d/dll.conf, everything is commented except
'snapscan' as FreeBSD seems to detect the scanner as snapscan and not
epson.

/usr/local/etc/sane.d/snapscan.conf
