[sane-devel] UMAX Astra aborts in high resolution scans

I have a UMAX Astra 1220S scanner connected to a BusLogic SCSI card that
I've used with SANE for years, but recently (possibly after a software
upgrade) it has been giving me headache & trouble, and I have just about
lost my wits.

I am suddenly unable to scan images at higher resolutions. Without
specifying the resolution, the scanner works flawlessly ... at the
default of 100 dpi. But when the resolution is specified with
"--resolution" just as I've always done it, and I give any value greater
than about 150, the scanner will begin to scan (and produce output) but
then exit almost immediately, and only a tiny portion of the specified
area is actually scanned.

Typescript follows ... assistance is greatly appreciated.
