I have trouble with my Epson scanner but I'm hoping that the bug is now being 
addressed.

Does sane-find-scanner  work for you?

Have you tried looking at /etc/sane.d/artec_eplus48u.conf this file is present 
in both FC3 and FC5t3 so I guess FC4 will have it too. It might give you a 
clue.

That's about all I can suggest.
