  Ah, yes, I missed that. I thought 18 was an existing model value, but it is not.
  Anyway, a temporary fix is simple. Just add the line:

  {"FlatbedScanner18", PRISA620S},

  after the existing line:

  {"FlatbedScanner16", PRISA620S},

  in the file snapscan.h in the backend directory. As far as I know it should be OK
  to treat an Acer 640 like a 620, even though there are differences in their colour
  resolution. Please report back results, so we can build better picture of what
  works and what does not.
