I have out-commented the whole firmware row, un-plugged the scanner for reset, started windows and performed a scan to make sure the scanner is still working correctly in itself, re-booted mdk linux and... it now scans nicely as if there were never any problems.
i remembered that the scanner performed nicely when I had mdk freshly installed. By the time something must have occurred that set the scanner wrongly, which led to my intstalling the firmware (which previously wasn't necessary).
So by resetting it seems I have re-installed the right order. I have no clue why that is but am happy for now, so let's wait and see.
Thanks for your help
Jost
