    Hi!

    Probably you didn't specify the correct port your scanner is connected
    to. You can do this in the file mustek_pp.conf:

    port <your port>

    You can try all three possible values: 0x378 0x278 0x3BC, or you know
    the value, or you have a look a /proc/ioports (after printing something,
    so parport is loaded)...

    If it doesn't work, please send the output of

    # SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_PA4S2=128 scanimage -L

    and

    # cat /proc/ioports

    (after printing something)
