Has that "Multiple LUN" problem been ruled out yet?  Perhaps the scanner
 is responding for some commands, but not for others.

Another possible odd-ball issue is that this set of Microtek scanners does
 not use a SCSI-2 command set --- it's a variant of SCSI-1 with a lot of
 vendor-defined commands and completely non-standard sense codes.  Perhaps
 the OS-X iokit is getting confused by that.  (The linux scsi drivers have
 pretty much never returned the sense codes back to user-space without
 mangling them beyond recognition.)


Another question:  does the scanner ever start moving/making noises?
 The log snippets show that "start_scan" is received ok --- the scanner
 should start doing something after that.  If not, maybe "start_scan"
 has not been received ok.

Hmm...

Quite possibly *none* of the commands (besides INQUIRY) have been 
 received ok --- but the sense codes are being ignored, and the
 get_scan_status is the first command that is actually waiting for
 data to return from the scanner, hence the first one that hangs.
