[Bug 1532292] [NEW] Mechanical part stops moving after each operation

 

Public bug reported:

The scanner only does the first operation after I plug it in. E.g.
preview a page, or scan it. On the second operation, the mechanical part
does not move anymore (there is no noise whatsoever from the scanner),
and the scan output is pitch black.

The workaround I have found is to run scanimage -L between each
operation. I.e.:

- Start Xsane
- Preview
- run scanimage -L
- Scan
- run scanimage -L
- Preview
- run scanimage -L
- Scan
...

I am using SANE git from Rolf's PPA, since I was before affected by bug
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sane-backends/+bug/1250196
since I got a new computer.
