Hi Vilnius,

The behavior of xsane sounds strange. Please check what's going on with:
$ SANE_DEBUG_PIXMA=11 SANE_DEBUG_BJNP=5 xsane

Alternatively you can try a test scan with:
$ SANE_DEBUG_PIXMA=11 SANE_DEBUG_BJNP=5 scanimage >test.pnm

If you want to scan from ADF, for a first approach you should use
gscan2pdf (ADF implementation in xsane and scanimage is very tricky to use):
$ SANE_DEBUG_PIXMA=11 SANE_DEBUG_BJNP=5 gscan2pdf

If you have further problems, please send me compressed log files.

If ADF still isn't working, please also create an USB snoop file from a
Windows machine as reference. You can use wireshark with usbpcap
(https://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/USB).

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
Rolf
