That's funny. Your model isn't mentioned in the SANE devices page (
http://www.sane-project.org/sane-mfgs.html). Acutually, there is only one
Oki device mentioned (in the stable as well as the development version of
SANE).

How have you gotten it to work? Has it been recognized automatically,
perhaps as some different device?
