Sorry for kicking in somewhat late, but I have been to places where no 
computer exist in the last few days...

The snapscan backend should handle the warming up phase correctly (and 
it does so here on my machine with an Acer 620). So, in theory, you 
should be able to start xsane immediately after powering on your 
scanner. If you can't it's a bug in the backend. In this case please 
send me a debug log from the failed attempt: run 
"SANE_DEBUG_SNAPSCAN=255 xsane 2>debug.log" immediately after 
powering on your scanner and send me the debug.log file.
