Some scanners have a hardware lock mechanism. This switch is usually on the bottom side of the scanner. If it's enabled, the scan head can't move. It's intended for transporting the scanner to avoid destroing the scan head. If this mechanism also exists in your scanner and it's enabled the scan head will not move even if SANE tries to move it.
