After upgrading from Leap 15.1 to 15.2, the very old (20 +years) Epson1640SU scanner fails to start with xsane. I was using it for tax records in April of this year with Leap 15.1 so I think the upgrade is a factor.
Can someone point me in the right direction?

Disconnect the scanner USB and reconnect. Capture the following output and report back…
dmesg |tail
scanimage -L
