Hello,

It might be that this is specific to the driver from Brother (brscan-0.2.1-0.i386.deb) for the 
MFC3420C. I recently did some tests with a Canon LiDE30 (plustek-backend shipped with SANE) and 
JSane worked fine.

Also another problem I have with the MFC3420C (see 
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/sane-devel/2006-July/017297.html) did not occur with the 
LiDE30.

best
Jens
