    Welcome to the forums!

    If you haven't done so already, you can check the listing here to see if your scanner is supported:

    There are several types of similar models listed there. Try if some works. Obviously you'll have to download the firmware file, place it somewhere (usually to the /opt folder, but it can be anywhere), then edit the /etc/sane.d/gt68xx.conf file. Try to find the line with your scanners name, then :
    Uncomment the line below the model's name so it should look like
    override "mustek-scanner-..."
    firmware "/opt/firmware.usb"

    accordingly to the type and path...
    Good luck "Winner"!

    One more thing: I recommend you to edit the conf file with gedit:
    sudo gedit /etc/sane.d/gt68xx.conf
    If you need a CD/DVD catalogizer, give a try to my program:
