Updated driver pack

But the files on the cd might work

the device is a rebranded Sagem device

Extract the acrchive and poke around for the Ubuntu directory inside the 
scanner folder and the printer/pcl6 folder. There are instructions inside each 
on how to install. But I do not have this device so I cannot verify how well 
it works
