Alex Eftimie,

Thanks. I'm not usb protocol expert, so as far as I can see
on the first run usbmon output it like this:

 eead2240 1101775494 S Bo:3:003:3 -115 4 = 1ba81200
 eead2240 1101775516 C Bo:3:003:3 0 4 >
 eead2240 1101775554 S Bi:3:003:4 -115 1024 <
 eead2240 1101776007 C Bi:3:003:4 -121 70 = a8004310 5865726f 78202020 5865726f 7820576f 726b4365 6e747265 20333232

"1ba81200" is INQUIRY command to the scanner, and scanner replies valid packet.
On the second run in the same place:

 ec424e40 1120416714 S Bo:3:003:3 -115 4 = 1ba81200
 ec424e40 1120416733 C Bo:3:003:3 0 4 >
 eeef3600 1120416783 S Bi:3:003:4 -115 1024 <
 eeef3600 1121416871 C Bi:3:003:4 -2 0

Driver sends INQUIRY as before, but device reply 0.

In smfp logs I see that communication with 3:005:3 and 3:005:4 endpoints is
exactly the same, and device reply 0 on the second request. But they also have
 communiction with 3:005:2 and 3:005:1 endpoints which reply valid data each time:

 ebbe6480 1337401585 S Bi:3:005:2 -115 1024 <
 ebbe6480 1337401910 C Bi:3:005:2 -2 0
 ee630780 1337403079 S Bi:3:005:2 -115 1024 <
 ee630540 1337403122 S Bo:3:005:1 -115 4 = 1ba81200

 ebbe66c0 1337503267 S Bi:3:005:2 -115 1024 <
 ebbe66c0 1337503358 C Bi:3:005:2 -2 0

 ebe2b480 1337767156 S Bo:3:005:3 -115 4 = 1ba81200

Second run:

 ef9b6780 1364024034 S Bi:3:005:2 -115 1024 <
 ef9b6780 1364024332 C Bi:3:005:2 -2 0

 ee572c00 1364125725 S Bi:3:005:2 -115 1024 <
 ee572c00 1364125809 C Bi:3:005:2 -2 0

 efb4e9c0 1364403169 S Bo:3:005:3 -115 4 = 1ba81200
 efb4e9c0 1364403198 C Bo:3:005:3 0 4 >
 efb4e9c0 1364403229 S Bi:3:005:4 -115 1024 <
 efb4e9c0 1365403290 C Bi:3:005:4 -2 0

And then driver work only with 3:005:1/3:005:2 endpoints.
There was also some communication with printer (3:005:0) which I skipped.

It seems like sanei seeing only one device at 3:005:3/3:005:4 (and that target fails),
but smfp sees two, and first one (at 3:005:1/3:005:2) is actually working correctly.

Need help of some usb expert at this point.
