Not as far as I know. What exactly is the SnapScan?

That's good news! Let's hope somebody comes forward with such a
scanner and the time/knowledge to write such a driver. If you want to
give it a shot on your own, you might want to look at some existing
backends. Depending on what the Agfa protocol looks like, the HP,
Mustek, or UMAX backend may provide a useful starting point. If you
have any questions, feel free to drop a note.
