Further to my Epson V30 scanner installation problems, below is the message when the key driver file installation is attempted. I see many people have successfully installed their V30.

Has anyone seen this error and got around it?

I tried the help from Dan and still no luck. If I am not following etiquette please forgive me as I am new to Linux and the forum. So I will hope I can learn more.

Try to run the scanner with the application Simple Scan

If not works, install follows:

sudo apt-get install netcat-openbsd netcat-traditional
