just tested it in 8.10 - still the same problem
'sane-find-scanner' finds the scanner but not 'scanimage -L'
Xsane = no devices

confirmed that Epson Perfection 4490 PHOTO scanner is not working by default in 9.10. The drivers at http://avasys.jp/eng/linux_driver/ do not solve the issue, perhaps because there is a problem with permissions. Editing the rules as detailed in this thread got it working: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=8518755
