[G4] Cannon Scanner

[Tony Gamble]

Are you plugging it into an unpowered USB hub or through the hub on the 
USB keyboard?  If so, it may not be getting the required power to 
operate.  I have a CanoScan LiDE 20 that operates the same way, and it 
will not work unless it's plugged into a powered hub (one which has a 
power supply plugged into an electrical socket) or directly into the 
onboard USB or PCI USB card.
