I have two machines with which I want to use the scanner, one of them is the desktop with 64-bit Kubuntu (still 14.04) and the other one is a rather old laptop which is not 64-bit capable (Pentium-M) with 32-bit Kubuntu 16.04. When I discovered the problem on the laptop, I checked it with the desktop and found out that it is the same for the 32-bit version of 16.04, but different with 64-bit 16.04. And even with 64-bit 16.04 there is still the unusual noise and I fear that it might result in some hardware wearout. So I'm not sure if using 64-bit really would be a workaround.

If that error message appears, I have to replug the scanner to make it working again. There are several symptom which are not always the same: Sometimes only preview doesn't work, sometimes scanning doesn't work. Sometimes scanning with 75 dpi / color results in a corrupted image with vertical coloured lines while scanning the same text printout with 600 dpi results in a normal output. Often the scanner is very noisy compared to the sound I am used to from scanning with the trusty release. WORKAROUND: Using the amd64 version on the same machine works, but the scanner is quite noisy compared to the sound I am used to from the trusty release.
