WHAT HAPPENS INSTEAD Simple scan crashes when set to scan images. When scan button is pressed, the app seems to begin the scanning process, scanner takes the page (if on the ADF), the app shows as if beginning to scan and then suddenly disappears with no message shown. However if the app is launched again, the app opens immediately showing all pages scanned up to that moment (in text mode) except for the newly scanned photo, as if the app was always there and had never closed. When set to scan text, it is ok, but page size is much larger than actual sheet or flat-bed size (higher, actually, width is ok).
