Nope this is correct. The backend does not work well in ADF mode using
this scanner. I try to meditate about this in the next days. The
problem is that AFAIK the byes we send are just right and work well on
my AV 8000S (A3 + ADF + > 30 pages/minute).

Oh, interesting! Yes there are differences ...

Could I get a log for both of this commands with
SANE_DEBUG_AVISION=7. This would be a great help to track this.
