@tecnotercio
Thanks for including firmware patch!
I'll appreciate that you are doing something with/listing to user comments!
If Epson add those device's we can remove this patch, they did eventually for my V330 so who knows

@tecnotercio
Thanks for including no serial patch!
But it would be even better to include all scanners that need firmware in UsbFfinder.cpp? That is why i asked @crybaby for the productId
Something like this
else if (dd.idProduct == 0x13F)
{ sprintf(const_cast<char*>(devInfo.displayName), "%s", "Perfection V39II/GT-S660");
isValidDeviceInfo = true;
}

@jan666 and @crybaby: I updated the PKGBUILD with a patch to detect scanners that do not report their serial number, as requested.

Mm idProduct "013f" is not listed in UsbFinder.cpp while i think it should as it needs the plugin
You got lucky that your device does have a serial number and thus it works for you. However a friend of mine is not so lucky, his device doesn't seem to have a serial number so it fails to operate, with the no serial patch it works but the real problem is that it is missing from UsbFinder.cpp

@jan666 The scanner doesn't really 'power on' until I start epsonscan2, but either way I get the same result from lsusb: Bus 001 Device 002: ID 04b8:013f Seiko Epson Corp. Epson Perfection V39II

@crybaby
what is the output of lsusb with your scanner connected and powered on? I am trying to find the root cause of this scanner not working for a friend

@jan666 Exactly the same resolutions in /usr/lib/epsonscan2/Resources/Models/ES0063/WW

@tecnotercio
are you considering to add this patch?
https://github.com/duck7000/aur_epsonscan2/blob/main/0005-Fix-crash-no-serial-number.patch
I know for sure that epsonscanner V39II does need this (a friend of mine has one) It is needed if the usb device has no serial number (apparently this happens with some devices) The scanner is not detected if there is no serialnumber.
I didn't made the patch myself, got it from here https://github.com/shenghuang147/aur_epsonscan2
Edit: The problem might be that V39II not is listed in /src/Controller/Src/Finder/UsbFinder.cpp? I think this is a bug as it should be listed because it needs the firmware to operate.

@tecnotercio
For my Vf330 there are mentions for dustremoving in models/ES0142 but that option is not in the GUI, any thoughts?
The Windows version does have that option for sure so i am wondering

@tecnotercio
I wonder if Epson deliberately set wrong paths? I mean /usr/libexec does not exits on any Linux distro as far as i know?
If they use the same source for compiling, say for Ubuntu, they must experience the same errors as we do, just a thought.
