<p>Update to my mailing below (I deleted it
before it was approved to the list)....<br>
</p>
<div>It definitely has to do with what's going
on during the sane_read API function.<br>
<br>
If I issue scanimage -T, it will start
clicking instantly<br>

<div>There are a couple of things that I can think
of:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1 - The scan head is hitting the end of travel
and is slipping the belt or gear, or</div>
<div>2- Whatever motor settings being specified are
out of spec for the motor.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Can you confirm is this happens when the scan
head is at the end of travel?</div>
<div>If not, then I suspect that the motor is having
some problems with the settings used by the
backend to drive the motor.</div>

<p>Thank you so much for your reply. </p>
<p>I am unsure of how to do that. I do not see any moving
part from the outside. I assume I need to open and
watch, which is fine. I will open it and watch.<br>

<div>If you do have the option to try Windows, then I would
give that a go, at least to verify the correct function of
the device.<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Actually, since this is a genesys device, it may be that
the motor settings have changed as the genesys backend of
SANE was rewritten in C++.</div>
<div>One or two machines have had problems with motor tables
from this new version exhibiting just this problem: the
motor just buzzes without moving. If you are using a recent
SANE, then this *could* be the issue.</div>
<div>If so, then we would have to change the motor settings
for this machine.</div>

<p>I'll try wine or run a vm. I will then try to locate a windows
machine if those two options don't pan out. <br>

<p>The last time I tried to use it, it worked. That was Sept 2016.<br>

scanimage -V<br>
scanimage (sane-backends) 1.1.1-debian; backend version 1.1.1<br>
<p>I am not fluent in C++, but I am willing to help in any way.</p>
<p data-sourcepos="33:3-33:12">There is a more recent version 1.2.1.<br>
Here are the changes<br>
</p>
<p data-sourcepos="33:3-33:12"><code>genesys:</code></p>
<ul data-sourcepos="34:5-38:87">
<li data-sourcepos="34:5-34:57">Fixes for unit test build errors
related to GCC 12.</li>
<li data-sourcepos="35:5-35:84">Fix for 32-bit limitation on scan

<li data-sourcepos="36:5-36:30">Build issue fix for OSX.</li>

</ul>
The second one is the only one that seems like it may be relevant.
I don't know.<br>
<br>
I attached lots of my local output and versions to the original
email. Did those make it to the list?
