Hi,

the error occurs during quality calibration. It's a known issue that 
quality calibration as implemented in the snapscan backend doesn't 
work for epson scanners. For that reason the option is disabled for 
epson models (see snapscan-options.c, line 522ff). In this case the 
calibrate function should never be called (see snapscan.c, line 
1600).

Either you're using a wrong version of the backend or there's some 
issue with option handling on amd64.
