<P>
I just got a 1240U and was very very happy when everything seemed to work. Then the other
<BR>
shoe dropped...
<BR>
<P>It turns out that when I set the scan resolution to 800 or higher in xsane I get a message
<BR>
&quot;Error during read: invalid argument&quot; and
<BR>
[epson] error in receive - status=5.
<BR>
I have been using the TPU (I'm not sure that matters).
<BR>
<P>Meanwhile the kernel reports
<BR>
read_scanner(0):funky result - -32. Please notify the maintainer.
<BR>
<P>I have to kill xsane, and afterward it is unable to find any devices. Then
<BR>
kernel talks about NAK received. The only way to restore order seems to be to completely
<BR>
remove the usb stack (just scanner doesn't work) and insmod everything again.
<BR>
<P>Just to make clear everything works perfectly below at 600 dpi and lower!
<BR>
<P>I'm using a sane rpm from helix gnome that contains epson backend 0.1.33.
<BR>
The kernel is a Mandrake 2.2.17 (i.e. backport), and I got a number of other USB devices
<BR>
that work just fine (Phillips web cam, pegasus ethernet, and Epson Photo printer).
<BR>
<P>I will of course try a more modern backend. I also saw on the FAQ the NAK
<BR>
timeout, but I'm not sure that's the problem since it only happens after things are
<BR>
screwed.
<BR>
<P>I was wondering whether anyone has reported this type of thing. I'll let you know what the
<BR>
more modern backend does.
