Hi Forum.
I'm trying to install an epson DX7400 scanner/printer/copier.
Epson's page is down and I have tried 3 threads from the forum already.
I'm at using the printerdriver from the CX4400 with sucess however the scanner is still troubling me some.
sane-backend keeps saying that I need usb.h to get usb support (even if the device is found by sane-find-scanner)
Now which package contains the header file I'm looking for?
I've already tried;
sudo aptitude install libusb-dev
sudo apt-get install libusb
sudo apt-get install libusb-dev
however I seem not to have the right source as it in the cases where I understand the result says:
Package libusb-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package libusb-dev has no installation candidate
Please help - Many thanks in advance.

Help checked in on me - By not getting the backend from the sources the forum adviced on search of epson DX7400 but installing the extra backends from System->Administration->Synapsis Package manager->Sane extra backends it now works just fine.
