You don't need the command-line tool (scan 6.0) if you've installed SANE.. they use exactly the same code.

Your scanner could be broken (unlikely) 2. Remove any printers from the passthrough port on the back of the scanner. 3. Try twiddling the parport_pc kernel module settings (add a DMA argument, or if you already have one, try removing it) 4. Try twiddling the BIOS settings for your parallel port. Hope one of those helps! (except the first one, I hope that isn't it..) Cheers, - Matthew Duggan
