    If it was Mustek 1200 UB compatible, the vendor would be 0x055f and
    product 0x0006. Maybe it works with the 1200ub backend nevertheless.

    and the Mustek 1200UB backend?

    Probabaly the kernel scanner driver couldn't detect/attach the
    scanner.

    The scanner module doesn't seem to be able to manage this scanner.
    However, I don't know which additional endpoints the scanner supports.
    Probabaly it's the best thing to contact one of the usb mailing lists
    or the dveleoper of the Linux scanner module.

    The scanner module seems to be the problem. However, I'm not suer if
    the 1200UB backend will work when the scanner is detected correctly by
    the scanner module.

    Bye,
