	Hello,

	there is no 'sane-user' mailing list so this is the right place for such 
reports.
	Ca you run scanimage with debug messages so I can have more data on the 
problem you have ? In a command shell do:
export SANE_DEBUG_LEXMARK=255
export SANE_DEBUG_LEXMARK_LOW=255
scanimage -L 2>probe.log

	then send the probe.log file to the list.

Regards,
	Stef
