Note: since my last posting, I have installed the ScanGear software. I  
did, after all, buy this MX850 because I need to scan and print. If  
this is a problem, let me know and I can remove the Canon software  
temporarily for testing.

I saved the attached pixma_bjnp.c to
~/Desktop/scanning_from_the_command_line/sane-scm-2009-03-27/sane- 
backends/backend/pixma_bjnp.c

then

$ cd ~/Desktop/scanning_from_the_command_line/sane-scm-2009-03-27/sane- 
backends/
$ sudo make uninstall
$ make distclean
$ export BACKENDS="canon pixma"
$ ./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install

Disconnected MX850 from USB; connected to Ethernet; confirmed self- 
assigned IP.

$ export SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_USB=255
$ export SANE_DEBUG_PIXMA=20
$ export SANE_DEBUG=255
$ scanimage -T &> scanimage-T.log

That was so successful, that I tried

$ scanimage --format=tiff > image.tiff 2> scanimage.log

and ended up with an actual scan in image.tiff.

The logs are in

Many thanks to you, Louis.
