I have this scanner with the latest sane/libsane/xsane under Gentoo
(which I'm about to update).  It also has the same problems on
occassion.  Sometimes unplugging and replugging the device helps if it
gets stuck when starting to scan. I also get problems more recently
with doing 16-bit scanning that are unrelated to the hardware... but
those are for another post.
