Simple Scan reports the same as scanimage does - it cannot disable compression which is why the image is compressed. Hans - I suggest you open a new bug here. This bug is about the default being set to compressed (and simple scan not being able to disable it). The bug you are reporting is that your driver/scanner can only do compressed.

This makes it impossible to scan anything losslessly. Editing ~/.sane/xsane/($scanner).drc to say "compression" "none" Fixes this temporarily.
