I just joined the list to ask an almost identical question ::-)

Also have the same problem, same setup, same scanner.  But, it's enough
to kill the scanner if the machine is put into sleep mode with "apm -s".

*However*, the machine doesn't go to sleep by itself with the scanner
hooked up.  I've read I may need ACPI enabled for that, so this could be
related.

Thanks for any tips!

He Blesses it.                                 It is a Holy Holy-Water Cannon.
He Blesses the Hell out of it.          It is a Wholly Holy Holy-Water Cannon.
He has it pierced.                It is a Holey Wholly Holy Holy-Water Cannon.
He makes it official.       It is a Canon Holey Wholly Holy Holy-Water Cannon.
