Chances are that rather than interfering with Sane, the proprietary
software does something that made the scanner work the next time you ran
Sane after having just run the ScanSnap app.

Well noting yet. Any reason to think that using the proprietary

something that interferes with SANE. (I'm suspect SANE is their
underlying engine)
We are and have been able to scan using ScanSnap, and for a brief moment
yesterday we were /also/ able to run `scanimage` and save a .pnm

So we're apparently back to the original question...
"Re: [sane-devel] scanimage -L detects no scanners /
sane-find-scanner does -- on MacOS"
`sane-find-scanner` returns `found USB scanner (vendor=0x04c5
[Fujitsu], product=0x132b [ScanSnap iX500]) at libusb:000:002`
and
`scanimage -L` returns `No scanners were identified. If you were
expecting something different` etc.
It was after your request for the stdout of `SANE_DEBUG_FUJITSU=50
SANE_DEBUG_SANEI_CONFIG=10 scanimage -L`
that it suddenly started working, so I wondered if by some magic that
was waking something up, but running it again made not difference
this go around.
Any ideas?
