I have an Epson Perfection 1670 scanner that I have used through several Kubuntu distribution upgrades. I don't use it much, but eventually got around to getting all the right software installed to make it work with Hardy. Flawless functionality for the few test scans I made a few months ago, using both XSane and Kooka. Now, I find that it still appears to work fine, but it only returns a white page (blank). None of the usual errors or problems associated with an incomplete installation, or other problem. The carriage physically moves and the scanning light (moving white lamp) is operational. In fact, everything seems perfectly normal except that there isn't any image displayed (except blank white).
I wonder if the image sensor is dead, but not sure how to test that. Does anyone have ideas on what to do next?
