Therefore I investigated how Image Capture works, and found a solution. But what about the scanner? A viable solution would be to use VueScan, which is a very good software, but I would like to have something more integrated with Mac OS X and, possibly, free. Starting from Mac OS X Jaguar, with the help of CUPS and gimp-print, I can use this device as a printer (the printer part is essentially an Epson Stylus Color 740).
