Thank you both,
Indeed scanner works perfectly in command-line even after deleting (with Computer Janitor) iscan, imlib and iscan-plugin. (With Wine, they happen to be a software like Xsane, so Iscan is the driver + software pack that is only compatible with a few RPM distros, and libsane (plustek) + sane-utils (scanimage) is the driver + software pack compatible with DEB distros and perhaps also RPM.) But this scanner isn't working with graphical user interface softwares like simple-scan nor xsane because plustek is not selected, even if Xsane ask us to select it at start. So is there a way to load modules automatically into scanner softwares? And is there a way for it to work faster ?

Either use a suitable frontend like xsane for adjusting the scan area or use the -x -y parameters for scanimage to enlarge the scan area. You might also adjust the resolution. "man scanimage" might be your friend. HTH Gerhard -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
