Lexmark Prospect Pro 205 on Wheezy



 After upgrading to Debian 7 (Wheezy), my Lexmark Prospect Pro 205 no longer works. I did a fresh install (of both OS and Lexmark drivers) to clean everything up. I called Lexmark and they were not able to tell me very much besides, "Lexmark does not support anything after Debian 6 or Ubuntu 12.04 so it might work or it might not." After a little trial and error, I was able to get the printer to work wirelessly, but I am still having trouble with the scanner.

I get this error message when trying to open XSANE:

Failed to open device 'lexmarklegacy_1_0_0:libnet/002000A28744'Device Busy.

Any help would be much appreciated.

This is a fresh installation of Wheezy using LXDE on an old Compaq Deskpro EN
