Use an unsupported Epson scanner with Image Capture
Authored by: Jeanrocco on Nov 22, '11 08:02:40PM

After reading my post, I realise the simplest thing to do is to replace the "Product Identification string" of a supported scanner close to your own, in file DeviceMatchingInfo.plist . In my case I only have to find the CX4200 Product Identification entry, in the file, and replace <string>CX4200</string> with <string>stylus CX3800</string> , and do nothing else... As a matter of fact, I did find the entry for a still supported "CX3900", and replaced it with "stylus CX3800". This amusingly gives me the right device Icon in Image capture, but the scanner name is now displayed as PX-A620... but what the h... you could always play with the "Region Name" in ModelInfo.plist but I didn't, I can live with it this way. Have fun !
