+      Olaf Meeuwissen reports on sane-devel: "I've checked around a little bit
+      and found some tidbits of information that seems to indicate that the
+      GT-7400U is the little sister of the GT-8400U.  There is a reasonable
+      chance that this scanner works with the snapscan backend.  You will
+      probably have to muck around a bit to get it to load the right firmware
+      file and copy that file from the Windoze software."
