Debian 6, that implies sane-backends-1.0.21-9 and xsane-0.997-2+b1.
There were a few fixes to the epson2 backend in sane-backends-1.0.22
that affected the Perfection 1650.  For what it's worth, the deprecated
epson backend ought to work fine.  You may also try the epkowa backend
that comes with Image Scan! for Linux available here:

If the problem persists, please provide a debug log with

  SANE_DEBUG_EPKOWA=HEX scanimage > /dev/null 2> debug.log

if using the epkowa backend or

  SANE_DEBUG_EPSON2=127 scanimage > /dev/null 2> debug.log

when using the epson2 backend.

Hope this helps,
