Maybe I miss something but the scannerdebug log doesn't show any error. Are you sure that it's not the card which sleeps? > In /etc/sane.d/mustek.conf I readily activated "option force-wait" to assure > that the scanner is being waited for. But no success so far. This wasn't the intention of the force-wait option. I'll try to reproduce the problem but I'm not sure if I still have such a scanner. Bye, Henning
